Fire at Former Flanagan & Seaton Building on Washington Street
|
It's been a busy night along Washington Street. Along with a car fire, which we've previously reported, firefighters have knocked down a blaze at the old Flanagan & Seaton building. Boston Fire Department Deputy Chief Jay Fleming said it appeared that demolition work was occurring in the building and a Bobcat vehicle caught fire. Firefighters were able to extinguish the flames and then waited for the smoke to clear from the building. Firefighters used thermal imaging machines to determine where the fire was located in the building entering.
