Merchants of the five West 231st Street businesses destroyed in a fire last December are left devastated as demolition has further erased what once stood.
As demolition began last week at the five Kingsbridge businesses ravaged by a fire in December, business owners were waiting for the cause of the fire to be determined so they can proceed with insurance claims.
Property managers for the five Kingsbridge businesses that were destroyed in an early-morning fire on Dec. 13 say they are awaiting news from the fire department on the cause. That will determine how they will proceed.
