Around Midnight I was out Sweeping over in Sparks and something caught my eye and it was Orange in color about 15 miles from where I was at. Well it Seems a BIG Apartment Complex was going up BIG TIME, 4 stories High and the Flames were about 100 foot in the air. I have seen fires before living here, but this one was Wild, they are brand new apartmennts so luckly no one lived in them just yet or they would have been toast. You could feel the heat from a long ways away, I had to go to that end of town to Sweep as I have 4 centers right in the area to clean and that was a Crazy Site to see.

Here is a link with a video and a pic of the Great Reno BBQ.

Oh man sounds like Jewish Lighting......new vacant building, insurance money......but what do I know.
 
Thats one heck of a fire. Damn! Good thing no one was living in them yet. Your right, they would be toast.
 
I was thinking the same thing, New and maybe with this economy not renting well so easy way to get my money back out of them LOL

Yea the flames were insane coming off this thing, they had to shut off 395 south to traffic and of coarse all the rubber neckers were out making a big mess to get by it to work at the centers I clean and then the power when off on us and man was it dark out there, we were just getting ready to leave and comeback when the sun was coming up and the power came back on for us. The center we were at is the furthest from town and the biggest out mall IE shopping center in town so there is not any lights out there so it was pitch black you could not see a thing. The fire is still ripping along as we speak it is going to take a day or so to get that one out.
