Not sure what to add. The fire resulted in a total loss for the 3 or so businesses affected, including behind the local where the fire apparently started. I believe there are around 12 people now without a job or source of income. I doubt anyone had insurance. The cement walls of the building are all that's left.

Thank you for the update. It is as I had feared, a total loss. A friend of mine lives in a similar building just a block away. I jokingly mentioned to her that the Fire Marshal would not be happy with the condition of the interior of the building. She shot back, "What Fire Marshal?"

Speaking of which, the Estacion de Bomberos on the road to La Ropa seems to be well equiped with modern equipment. Can anyone speak to their level of professionalism and effectiveness?
