Is this a relatively new building ? If so then you'd be hoping they would have plans etc for this.
Hope everybody is safe.

It's very modern inside, got redeveloped a few years back AFAIK I stayed there last winter for my UEFA B Licence, it was extremely tricky to get in and out of (doors wise) so fingers crossed everyone is safe. Honestly, it was a nightmare getting in and out of the building.

Went up for a gawk there, still blazing away. Fire started on 8th floor & spread quickly to 11th floor.
As was said it’s mostly emergency accommodation in there, no reports of casualties yet so fingers crossed. Serious amount of emergency services around. Gonna be a long night for them, fair play to em Edit; no emergency accommodation in the Metro, the homeless families are in the Travel Lodge in ballymun Edited by 9fingers - 21 Mar 2018 at 10:03pm |

The reason there fighting it f ok inside is that they don't have a tall enough ladder to reach the fire from the outside...

Few fire brigades have ladders tall enough to go much above ten stories. London's tallest is around 30m, certainly no more than 40m. Also, being on a ladder that high is not for the faint hearted either. |

Oh yeah, the attention seeking fookers. I hate the sort of people who go rushing into burning buildings and putting their lives in danger in the service of others just so they can claim credit for it, the absolute w**kers.
