Traffic killed
Just drove through there myself and was going to post. Traffic on Chestnut Hill Ave and South St is backed up in every direction as BFD, BPD, and EMS all use it as a staging area.
At least 3 engines responded so far, I think.
Fire knocked down
Now comes the checking for "extension" (i.e., making sure the fire hasn't spread behind walls or something) and clean up.
Address wrong
Should be 200 Strathmore Rd (near Chestnut Hill Ave).
Fixed
Thanks!

Was the best I could do on the scooter and trying not to upset the people behind me or the cop who was just getting ready to direct traffic.
On the right side
On the right side of the pic, there is a truck and trailer from what looked like a landscaping crew. I have no idea if it was related or not, but I didn't see the crew at the time that I was at the intersection.
