Indianapolis- Firefighters are on the scene of a 3-alarm fire in downtown Indianapolis just a few blocks north of the Statehouse.
125 firefighters are on the scene working to contain the flames.
The fire started at a condo retail complex center that is under construction around 3am Thursday morning. It is located at the corner of North and Senate near a residential area on the canal. The building there has collapsed. Video has shown large chunks of building falling into the canal.
Developer Flaherty and Collins owns the condo complex. It has been confirmed that the complex is the Cosmopolitan, downtown luxury apartments. The entire complex includes three buildings, apartments, a parking garage and a cafe. The developer says $28 million dollars was invested into these properties. One building has been completely destroyed in the flames, developers have not said which of the three buildings that is. The main building that holds the apartments is also on fire and crews are trying to get the flames under control, but having a difficult time getting to it because the surrounding buildings are so close.
ARSON! There's a surprise!
Yes, I was shocked! :biggrin:
