This is what is left of a 2.5 story 20x40 wood frame church. The church was fully involved and collapsed upon the arrival of the first due units. Most of the windows on the exposure 2 side of a 5 story Brick Apartment house were open. The fire quickly spread into the apartment house. A fourth alarm was needed.
