Fire on Lower GreenvilleThere's a 4-alarm fire on Lower Greenville. Started at Terili's Restaurant and spread to the Hurricane Restaurant, Greenville Ave. Bar and Grill and Mick's. For those who can't picture where this is, the Dubliner, the Grape, St. Martin's are across the street to the east, Blue Goose is across from the Hurricane to the north. This is terrible.

Re: Fire on Lower GreenvilleSeem to be a lot of restaurant fires lately....

Re: Fire on Lower GreenvilleStanding on the corner at 6:15 this morning watching my locals burn was devastating.

Re: Fire on Lower GreenvilleHow many Greenville fires over the years. Stans Blue Note burned down twice-did the Blue Goose burn once? (once Stan's Blue Note suspiciously burned down 3 days after owner John Caulfield "accidentally" shot and killed his girlfriend). The area further South where I believe San Francisco Rose used to be burned down. And I know the Arcadia burned. There have been more fires further South. jtstang lives or used to live in the area-could be a little firebug. Gonna be a messy St Patrick's Day.

Re: Fire on Lower GreenvilleJohn Caulfield. And I still live within 150 feet of this morning's fire and was doing firewatch to make sure no embers landed on my roof. No firebug here.

Re: Fire on Lower Greenvillethis is sad. I used to live on Llano for my senior year and a victory lap. spent many a night at GBG back in those days. $2 Tuesdays.
Ok this is getting ridiculous...I agree with Dutch on THIS ONE POST by him totally

Re: Fire on Lower GreenvilleTerilli's burned once before a number of years ago, but that fire was pretty well contained. This one spread like a wild fire. The sad thing is that the building itself has been there forever and I would think it is pretty iffy whether or not they can save it. There isn't much left to hold the walls up any more and they may have to demolish them from a safety stand point. Hope not.
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.
Re: Fire on Lower Greenvillevery sad indeed
Re: Fire on Lower Greenville
jt, I'm just north of you on Monticello. Sounded like the world was coming to an end this morning with the sirens and helicopters. Very sad day for all of us in the neighborhood. GBG was still a frequent stop for me. SMU-12 NCAA appearances, 1 Final Four

Re: Fire on Lower GreenvilleI woke up at 5:45 to the sirens, and didn't think much of it. When the first helicopter arrived and was hovering over my house at 6:00, I knew something was up.
PK, I'm sad to say I think it's gonna be a total loss. That building was built in 1926. I'd kill for a Nobel Peace Prize.
Re: Fire on Lower GreenvilleMy mother lives 3 blocks down on Goodwin, where I grew up. I happened to find out about the fire while listening to the traffic report on Sirius and when they said "a fire at the intersection of Greenville and Goodwin," I called my mom. She was clearly far enough away from the blaze and she's ok but it makes me sad to know that a part of our neighborhood is now gone. Honestly, didn't care much for Terilli's but I loved going to lunch at the GBG as a kid and having a burger and fries with my mom and dad. Just glad that no one got hurt.
