That's why I hate apartments it's always that one person to do something stupid and everybody's homes on fire

My prayers go out to all families. That’s one of the reasons why I don’t like apartment buildings. It either someone smoking, burning candles at an alter, cooking and left kitchen towel beside

Me: Why are U.S. American homes and apartments made of flimsy wood?

My prayers goes out to everyone who was affected by the fire.

How do you leave without your pets??? I have my little dog when an emergency happened I grabbed her and headed for safety.

NJ building codes really suck.a common space in a residential building that can spread a fire that easy is stupid.

This is terrible. .... I hope everybody had renters insurance.

Where were the fire walls? Condo and townhouses units supposed to have FIRE WALLS.

Get renters insurance folks. It's not expensive. If something like this happens at least you won't be completely out of luck. Apartment complex insurance will NOT cover you.

How could you just leave your pets behind?? I would’ve risked my life for them

I know a newlywed couple that lost everything in that fire.
