Warehouse on San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf was destroy by massive fire (Bert Inspired)

SUBSCRIBE NOW: https://bit.ly/2zz1U61 A massive four-alarm fire erupted at a warehouse on the San Francisco waterfront at Fisherman’s Wharf early Saturday which threatened to engulf the historic U.S. liberty ship SS Jeremiah O’Brien and destroyed historic Shed C at Pier 45. The structure was being used primarily for storage for fish-processing equipment and held a few offices, including for the Red & White Fleet of sightseeing boats. Shortly after firefighters arrived, San Francisco’s Fireboat 3 came on the scene, battling the blaze next to the O’Brien but fire had spread underneath the pier. Baxter said the fireboat crew saved the historic liberty ship that participated in the Allies invasion of Normandy on D-Day in 1944. Crews were also able to prevent the blaze from spreading to the USS Pampanito, which is also docked at the pier. By 2 p.m., the fire was under control, fire officials said. Streets around the Fisherman’s Wharf neighborhood were closed off. Baxter said rescue crews searched the smoldering remains as best they could to make sure there were no victims of the blaze. He said at the height of the battle with the flames there were 130 firefighters and 50 apparatus on the scene. The Coast Guard was on the scene helping to police the waters. Building inspectors will determine how badly the pier has been damaged. Musée Mécanique, a popular interactive museum housing 20th-century penny arcade games and artifacts at the south end of the pier was not damaged. The fire could be seen for miles. A large plume of smoke covered much of the San Francisco Bay, stretching from Sausalito to Oakland. Several residents have reported on social media being able to smell the smoke. Fishing companies that have been operating out of Pier 45 said the fire exacerbated an already tough business climate caused by the pandemic. Kenny Belov, owner of the seafood wholesaler TwoXSea, told the Chronicle his building near the warehouse was not damaged but he worried a power outage on the pier could ruin the fish in his freezer. Fire crews plan to monitor for hot spots through the evening. Motorists and boaters are advised to avoid the area. The cause of the fire is under investigation. Workers at nearby buildings told KPIX that homeless people often sleep in the warehouse.    • Warehouse on San Francisco’s Fisherman’s W...   #sanfranciscosfishermanswharf #bertinspired #moresubscriber #growmychannel #subscribenow Work-At-Home Secrets & Internet Jetset - JOHN CRESTANI : https://bit.ly/2YbROT5 #JohnCrestani Done For You Services Affiliate Marketing System : https://bit.ly/2zxknzX Relaxing Music - Meditation Music: https://bit.ly/3aIzS5b PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO LIKE, COMMENT, SHARE and SUBSCRIBE.
