Bridgeport Fire Department

Structure Fire Seaview At Grant Vacant Factory 2/14/10

Bridgeport Fire was called to a vacant factory at Seaview and Grant part of the old Remington Arms complex. With the cold weather the homeless use the structure as a refuge from the cold. Starting a fire to keep warm leads to what the fire department experienced tonight, a well involved structure too dangerous to enter. Three ladders were put into service along with masterstreams for an external attack. Crews would spend several cold hours dousing the fire before it would be brought under control.
