Fire on 99th Street and 4th Avenue – Bay Ridge
It’s 11:40 pm. We heard the sound of many firetrucks flying down 3rd Avenue. There is a fire on 99th Street and 4th Avenue – it’s in the second floor apartment over Campania. (See videos)
The firefighters had set up ladders going to the two apartments and the roof as well.
The fire is out now and thankfully no one was hurt. Unfortunately, the man who lived in the apartment lost everything. The apartment needs to gutted.
He is one of the amazing chefs at Campania Restaurant. A GoFundMe was started here – even $10 helps. They are collecting clothing in size Large or XL for him and Medium/Large for his wife. Their cat is okay and safe – thank God!
Update: Campania will be closed for a little while they repair the restaurant. Maybe someone will do a small campaign for those workers – so they can live and have some Christmas too.
Hugs,
