Franklin Fire Marshal Andy King said the fire started on the lower level, rear side of the two-story, historic building. He estimated the building suffered about $300,000 in damage.
King said the cause is still unknown and they are still working with Franklin Police and private investigators hired by the property insurer. Because of structural instability, they havenât yet been able to access all areas of the building to complete their investigation.
âWhile this was a big loss to our community, the damage could have been much worse,â said King. âA combination of early detection and notification, a quick response and solid tactical decisions by firefighters, and the automatic fire sprinklers led to a positive outcome.â
