Live from the Office Window: Fire Across the River
Just noticed giant plume of black smoke coming from a building across the Willamette. Yep, it's a fire. We can see the flames from here.
Looks like the fire department has arrived. Smoke mixed with white steam is now present.
KGW has a live feed but you have to register first. By the time I registered, got through the friggin commercial, all I got was the Alito hearings.
News says it's a house apartment up in flames on 13th and Taylor (SE). I'm at SW 1st and Salmon and have a pretty good view from the 5th floor of my building.

Update #2: Here's an interesting tidbit: VJ discovered/realized that she had taken a picture of this building because of it was kinda funky. Here's it is before it burned: Link to vj_pdx's photo of the apt on Flickr.
