Looks to be an apartment complex...an entire building up in flames!

White smoke means they've chosen a new pope.

Something on the inside seems to be serving as an unusual fuel source...perhaps a gas line or something? Actually, judging by the looks of the complex, probably a meth lab.

Common attic space and wind.

Plus now a standoff with an armed robbery suspect at Gessner and Tangiers. Busy night in Spring Branch.

Sloan and I live about a block from this. I drove by as the 1st responders were getting on scene. The fire looked to be in the middle of the apts but was about a floor or two above the top. Hopefully they get condemned and another town home development gets put in. Just got back from the Astros game. Looks like the school is being used for s shelter.

yep, the school across from my house is housing the people from the complex. at lest 2/3 of the apt was completely destroyed. hot, dry and windy is always a bad combo for fires.

Wow I'm surprised no one was hurt. There's a crap ton of kids in that complex that I see waiting for the bus every morning.

I live about 2 blocks from there...it was pretty crazy. Smoke everywhere...

Saw the smoke last night on the trip to Walgreens at Gessner and Kempwood. Wondered what it was all about. Heard several responders drive past while in the store. T&P's for the homeless roaches the fire put on the streets...

Damn I'm out of town this week and hadn't seen this.

We're only a few blocks away from there and the wife didn't say anything about it tonight.

HOUSTON Arson victims in need of help are afraid to ask because of rumors circulating in their Spring Branch apartment complex
.
A week ago, a four-alarm fire wiped out 60 apartments at the Gentry House complex. Help quickly came for victims. However, only half of those evicted stepped forward to receive donations, according to volunteers.

"I'm not afraid for myself," said one mother of two who did not want to be identified. "But, (I'm afraid) for my children and the fear they might instill in my children."
She said rumors are keeping some victims in the shadows - those without proper documentation fear calls to immigration.

"A lot of them have left," one volunteer said. "They're afraid to come back."
Volunteers roam the complex's parking lots most evenings to look for fire victims in need. They've found some sleeping in cars.
"It was so hot in the car, (a couple) got out and opted to sleep on the bench outside the church (next door)," another volunteer said.
"To see my neighbors in that situation, it hurts," Xanders Pace said.
Pace also lost his home in the fire. However, donations helped his family move into a new unit.
"If it wasn't for those guys, we'd still be in a painful situation," Pace said.
