    The fire was on sunday morning; heard sirens going by at around 930 am and, when they didn't stop @ 10, went out to investigate. Not a good scene; all of franklin blocked off from E. parkway down past carrol st., ladders going into the top floor; by that time i guess the flames had been subdued but there were NYPD, FD, and EMT all over, people milling about... the smoke came up franklin past the parkway as well.

    Thankfully no one was killed, from what i hear, but alot of families have been afffected...
