Per Google Street View this appears to be 1443 Oakland Blvd, and from the images it looks like a boarded up/abandoned office building. I could be wrong.
Yup, that’s the boarded up and abandoned building. I work down the road from here and have always thought this could happen. Just glad that it didn’t spread and create a bigger problem.
I was on my way home Saturday, planning to exit at YV, traffic came to a stop as we made the curve because The building looked like a Roman candle. I skipped the YV exit and on the flyover I felt the heat from the fire it was that hot.
