According to a reader, the damage at Otto's from this morning's fire isn't as bad as first feared. Still, the back room is a mess... Everyone seems to be saying the same thing: It could have been a lot worse.
Also, according to the reader, the residents who live in the building above Otto's were allowed back inside their homes just after 11 a.m....
Only a few police officers and fire personnel remain on the scene. 14th Street between Avenue A and Avenue B has been reopened to traffic.

I'm glad no one was hurt and also that there wasn't extensive damage. To Otto's Shrunken Head!
ReplyDeleteAll these assholes on FaceBook were whining about where their party was going to be held now that Ottos was not available; instead of asking if any people or pets were hurt or buildings damaged. Damn I hate this superficial town sometimes.
ReplyDeleteGlad nobody got hurt. We really love this place and we live 650 miles south.
ReplyDeleteI'm just glad Kennedy Fried Chicken now has an extra smoky flavour to their chicken!
ReplyDeleteJFK would be proud.
