FIRE GUTS TWO-STORY VACANT HOME ON 13TH STREET



(Ed.s Note: for the second time in recent memory, this vacant home on 13th Street near the Jackson Street intersection caught on fire as police and fire fighters battled the blaze. However, low water pressure and the advanced state of the fire prevented them from putting the fire out before the entire building was gutted. We thank one of our seven readers for sending us these photos.)

NOW maybe the Mexicans who lived there must return to Mexico!

If the house was vacant, it means no one lived there. Brownsville will never change as long as ignorance reigns.

What if the Mexicans who live there ARE AMERICAN citizens?
This place has been empty for at least 5 yrs.

Too bad. It was an interesting structure. But more important, what is the problem with the low water pressure? City should ensure that is fixed.
