3-Alarm Fire in SE Portland

As I was getting my food at a nearby restaurant, there was a huge black cloud coming from somewhere close to where I used to work on Water Ave. With food in hand, I took off running after the fire engines that past me screaming their sirens. As I approached, people had started to flock around the building as it was smoldering with smoke billowing out of the roof. The first part of the video is from that viewpoint.. Then I walked down the street a bit, across from the building on fire, and grabbed some more footage. It's not the best, but it's what I got. A 3-Alarm Fire, it was tremendous..
