One of our residential structures that did not survive...

These pictures were taken today less than one week after a fire ravaged this residential structure at the NE corner of 1st Avenue South and South B Street. There is another hulk of a structure than burned the same night within three blocks of this one. See the picture of the tied shows across the power line. Many think that indicates a place where street drugs are available.

I don't know about the status of this house - whether it was vacant, foreclosed or what. But this is concerning for many reasons. What struck me most is this is right across the street from Our Savior Lutheran which is one of our city polling locations.
