Holy shit, the building across the street is on fire.
REDACTED says:
flames and everything.
MvB says:
no kidding?

the Olive 8
MvB says:
what's an Olive 8
REDACTED says:
It's under construction but you can see the flames and smoke.
MvB says:
what street is that?
REDACTED says:
Olive 8 is the name of the building. Very original I'd say seeing as how it's on Olive and 8th.
REDACTED says:
Man the fire trucks are pulling up.
REDACTED says:
5 of them
REDACTED says:
and they've blocked Olive, great idea on Friday night.
REDACTED says:
The fire is out now. Smoke dying down.
REDACTED says:
Thank you Seattle Fire Department.
REDACTED says:
