A firefighter at the scene said the fire started in one of the buildings and spread to the other.
It's still too early to determine the cause of the blaze, but since they had been half-demolished and their demolition halted, perhaps someone figured out a quicker way to get rid of the wooden structures. It worked. Or perhaps it was caused by crackheads. Or a mad arsonist, maybe? Hmmm.
Ironically, just across the alley on the lot facing Monroe Street there is another half-demolished building that used to belong to the painter and artist Rangel. Firefighters doused an ebony tree across 12th Street on the lawn of the Cameron County Dancy Building after an ember lit a branch, but apparently the fires did not spread to the ruins across the alley. Or maybe it wasn't included in the deal.)

Matamoros Cardenas family owned for over 40 years?
I had wondered how long the ordinance inspector would take to issue an injunction to the owner so that he could remove the hazardous situation
that has sat there for so long. There are so many of these houses all
around Brownsville, but nothing is being done to address the situation.
People wait for a serious situation before they take care of it before it
causes danger to others. But where are our leaders?
Yesterday, Saturday, I went by that street and it was empty: the street few cars, no people walking around and only one man cutting the grass in the old Court House.
I think somebody was still living there in the demolished homes....the structure was standing, only the roof was down.... the structure was not on the ground.
Shut the fuck up, Montoya.
what do you know?
nothing lately.
just copying & pasting shit. all you do, guey!
OVER PAID FIRE DEPARTMENT. THAT IS THE RESULT OF BEING OVER WEIGHT. FIRE WILL WIN EVERYTIME.
2 BLOCKS FROM THE FIRE STATION. NOT SURPRISED. THEY TAKE TO LONG TO ARRIVE.
THEY BLAME IT ON DOWNTOWN TRAFFIC AND ENTERTAINMENT.
THERE PRIDE FLAG.
Toya, thank you for creating your blog. I like your blog because it makes me laugh. I had never heard of shrimp referred to as venudo. As a matter of fact I had never heard the word venudo before. I could probably use the word venudo to describe a certain part of my husband's anatomy...lol.
As far as the dumbass who loves to post demeaning comments "just ignore him." Now when I come across his comments I just skip them. If I happen to read them I smirk and think What a Caga Palo. It must be depressing to be a dip stick. Just ignore the shit's rant.
Thank you! Maybe one of these days I will have the pleasure of buying you your lunch or dinner. En el buen sentido de la palabra luv ya.
No hay pedo
BEDC will rebuild em
My husband absolutely loves my feet and wants others to admire them. I hope you like them as well and would love to hear from you if they hopefully turned you on and if you came by looking at them. I am very new to this!
THE "PRIDE BOYS" OF DOWNTOWN BROWNSVILLE FIRE DEPARTMENT!
THEY ALL DRINK BUDWEISER,
SIX FIREMEN STANDING UNDER THE TREE, FOR SHADE AND, NOT A BIT CONCERNED ABOUT THE HOUSE BURNING DOWN. OR WERE THEY RUNNING FROM THE FIRE.
AND, NOT ONE OF THEM IN THERE FIRE PROTECTIVE GEAR.
OR MAYBE THAT ONLY HAPPENS IN HOLLYWOOD MATAMOROS.
THEY REALLY THINK THEY ARE ALL THAT.
GOOD GRIEF!!!!
IT IS FUNNY TO SEE THEM IN HEB. THEY ALL WALK TOGETHER, RATHER THAN SPREAD OUT AND EVERYONE OF THEM GET GROCERIES. THEY MAKE IT FOR AN ALL-DAY EVENT.
THEY BUY ALL THE PREPARATION H.
BUT INSTEAD OUR TAX DOLLARS GOING TO WASTE. THEY CAN'T THINK.
BUY YOUR GROCERIES WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE AT THE FIRE STATION.

You are right about the anatomy part. That is what he meant about, venudo.

post some pictures of your lovely feet, I am sure I will also adore them. prettyplease.
venudo:
mexican term for pussy
Shirley, your venudo smells like fish.
Easy to make Vegan Menudo food for the soul: Venudo
so what is it? depends on the situation and the time of day or night.
I feel like eating venudo, if its noon its food
I feel like eating venudo, if its midnight well you know what it means.
The front porch of one of the houses was completely destroyed and on the ground before the fire and I was always afraid it would completely fall on some person or a car being driven on that side of the street. Like the reader above says, there are so many houses in the same shape or worse in Brownsville and nobody does anything about it. Could it be that if the property is so
run-down, someone (TM, TM or RY) are waiting for the auction to buy it at it's lowest price and make a killing out of the property. Even the past TAC -
Quintana and his kids made a killing by buying property that that was been sold for lack of paying taxes. They own a bunch of property in The Woods
subdivision, and how did that happen? Fill your pockets, not your conscience.

Old Timer, it is "You're So Vain." Vain means to have a grandiose opportunity of one's looks, and abilities.

Toya, this section of the comments is a prime example of why I get a good laugh with your blog. People in our community ran with the word of the day "venudo."
It is like a comedy and with the way things are we all need a good laugh.
ANOTHER PLACE FOR THE HOMELESS IT WILL SIT THERE FOR 20 YEARS.
