Day 309: Fire Near the R Street Market

Yesterday afternoon, I went grocery shopping after my massage, and as I left Safeway, I heard and saw numerous fire engines speeding south along 19th Street. As I looked after them, I saw smoke billowing into the sky from just a couple of blocks away, and it was clear that a fire had recently started up somewhere nearby.

I couldn't find much information online, but it appears as though there was a fire in a residential building at 20th & T Streets, although it's difficult to know which structure was impacted from the only photo that has been posted so far:

A more accurate source may be the Fire Department's Facebook page, which indicates that the fire location was actually 19th & T Streets and provides a short video montage of the scene.
