Capital Hall Condos Fire - Update

Earlier today a fire started in what appears to be a dumpster on the ground level outside Capital Hall Condos being built by Ashcroft Homes. Reports indicate that the fire spread up a garbage chute which ran up the side of the building. It was originally set to open in September, which the developer is going to still try to be ready for. Between 40 and 50 firefighters and 16 to 18 trucks responded to the 3-alarm blaze. In will take some time to time to determine the cause and expected timeline moving forward, however the damage at this time looks much worse that it could be - mainly exterior cladding and windows.

BREAKING - Capital Hall Condos- Construction Fire

With information still coming in, we have learned that there is a fire at Capital Hall (a student focused investment condo rental building) which is located at 101 Champagne Ave in Little Italy. These are being built by Ashcroft Homes and targeted towards student rentals. SoHo Champagne is the building seen in the middle and from what we are told is under standby to be evacuated if the winds shift.
