You can now see right through the building on Second Avenue, but at the top of the steeple, the New York Liberty Bell remains intact. I couldn t believe it, the Reverend Jacqui Lewis said.

A small fire broke out in the remains of the Middle Collegiate Church in the East Village and was quickly extinguished Saturday morning, fire officials said.
The flare-up happened in the remains of the 128-year-old church on Second Avenue and East 7th Street, which was heavily damaged along with a neighboring vacant building that was destroyed in a six-alarm fire last weekend.
Since then, FDNY units have been stationed at the site, monitoring the subsequent salvage and demolition.
