The Torch Tower is one of the world’s tallest residential towers reaching more than 80 stories high. It caught fire in early 2015 with no major casualties reported in that blaze.

Was someone "practicing"?

It might be a good time to consider renaming the building. "Torch Tower", indeed.

No Fancy, like Tower 7 who was not hit by a plane on 9/11 to fall into it's own footprint. We're just waiting for this building to collapse because of the fire.....remember it's a new norm. Tower 7 has set the new norm! :D

I suggest you read the thread on Tower 7 - hardly fell into its own footprint when millions of dollars of damage was done to the Verizon building. But trust you to get sidetracked again.

Why would it collapse? It didn't the first time. Sounds like the cladding again and the fire didn't last that long.
...The fire was very strong at that time, about 1 a.m. Then it started calming down over the next two hours," he added.
