Pottstown

Pottstown Mercury

Check out the video to see the fire that happened in downtown Pottstown on Saturday. Amazingly no one was injured, lots of damage done.

I really hope that this will be rebuilt. As crappy as parts of Pottstown are they really were trying to revitalize the downtown area. This is a major blow. I just worry that it will sit there boarded up for decades just the the Slack Shack lot. The Slack Shack was a fire that happened in the same area of Pottstown, just on the other side of High St. at least 15 years ago. It is still a boarded up lot.

BTW, I went there to take pictures of it today. I'll have stuff up tomorrow night. As I was getting ready to go, I got interviewed by a reporter of the Reading Eagle Newspaper.

Well that is all for now.
