Mt. Pleasant Fire - Pictures From Above

Yesterday I managed to get onto the roof of the apartment building behind 3145 Mt. Pleasant Street which burned late Wednesday night. The building is a total loss as you can see, and much of the Meridian Hill Church was also destroyed.

Thankfully nobody was killed, but the displaced residents need help. The Neighbor's Consejo is coordinating relief efforts. You can donate online though their web site. In addition to cash, there are many other needs such as clothing and even cell phone chargers. Hear Mount Pleasant is maintaining a page as well.

These are some of the more dramatic pictures, I took a lot more that you can see here.
