Two nights ago the Cochrane Block, built in 1911 on North Bay’s Main Street, burned.
Two businesses occupied this building. Lefebvre’s Sports on this end and Vested Interest in the back of the building which opens onto McIntyre Street. Both businesses suffered devastating fire damage.
It seems that old buildings in downtowns everywhere suffer the same fate on a regular basis. It is always heart-rending when they do.
The pain lasts forever.
