On Friday evening there was an electrical fire in the ceiling of the massive duplex/loft condo that faces Underhill, right above the entrance according to a reader who was enjoying a burger across the street at Tavern on Dean. “The lobby below was filled with water — and firemen — and through the soaring windows (which were foggy and soaked from all the water) we could see them digging around in the ceiling,” he writes. According to the waitress at ToD, someone had moved into that unit about a week ago. Bummer for them. Update: Turns out there was not a fire (though firetrucks did come to the scene). There was a rather large leak from the line to the ice machine that resulted in water damage to the ceiling below.

Cover-Up At The Washington Condos? [Brownstoner]
poor buyers. developers need to stop using scamano as the architect.
the ice machine? i never checked out the listing and there is no mention of an ice machine in the previous posts. is this an apartment building or a hotel? or does the building come with a skating rink? i’d prefer that to the basketball court in that vinegar hill building.
Anon 2:29 irresponsibility lies with the owner for forcing our fire dept to waste time to deal with a large leak in a brand new condo.
I was by there, there was one truck and no signs of fire. this is irresponsible. It was something to do with a water valve,but no fire.
1:37-
Is that you, Set Speed?
he put up a picture of a slightly singed outlet. hardley irresponsible. I drove by there fri night and they’re were all sorts of engines out there—something more than a singed electrical got them all out there…
why do I suspect annon 1:37 has some sort of financial interest in The Washington?
You put a stock photo implying there was a fire, when you have no idea what really happend? That is beyond irresponsible!! Disgusting. I wouldn’t be surprised if you hear from some lawyers.
– BEWARE – ! – this place couldn’t get any scarier! (watch now it will get even scarier)
Sorry, Should have been clearer. That’s just a stock photo.
