A massive fire has gutted a 157 unit apartment complex on Millrise Drive S.W. The noon hour, three-alarm blaze forced dozens of residents from their homes. Now as many as 300 people will be looking for a new place to live. Video by Rick Donkers and Gavin Young.

  • My Grade 6 math teacher lived there

  • @mathiastheok yes it's a Bronto Skylift

  • 0:46... never seen a forward tandem axle ladder... wonder if that's a Bronto SkyLift?

  • i used to live on the corner near the condos

  • horrible truck placement...

  • this was caused by some douchebag extinguishing a cigarette in a planter

  • @Rata4You The building did have sprinklers, but they didn't help much because the fire started outside, and then moved into the attic, where there were no sprinklers.

  • I was skateboarding RIGHT Behind that camera haha... Kinda sad though but still I WAS RIGHT THERE... WOO

  • In Vancouver you can´t even build houses without sprinker systems. It´s weird how Calgary, a modern city, would allow a building to be built without sprinklers. I suppose developers thrive under conservative govts, not giving a damn about safety.

    Oh well, glad I don´t live in such a dump.

  • horrendous.

    The whole building will have to be torn down
