It's at W.130th and Berea. Apparently an industrial site.

Hilary and I were on 90 when this was happening. Competely involved, very ugly. Looked like a recently renovated industrial bldg. We tried calling Jim about six times but apparently he was already talking to Jill!

I saw the smoke this morning while working in my back yard. How did I know I'd be able to come here and find out the details on what happened?

Thanks for the photos!

Thanks for sharing. We saw the smoke when we were touring the new Harding and couldn't figure out what was going on.
