Big Fire on the 1300 Block of H Street, NE – Possibly Red Rocks

UPDATE from Red Rocks:

“We are very thankful for the brave first responders @DCfireems and @DCPoliceDept who quickly took control of the situation and extingushed a fire that ignited on our roof deck last night. Their work minimized a fire that not only could have been devastating for RedRocks but also our neighbors on 13th Street. We are grateful that no one was injured and are very appreciative of the support received from our loyal customers, friends and neighbors in the H Street community. We are working hard to clean up the mess and hope to reopen real soon. Thank you for all the emails, messages, and continued support.
