The blaze erupted inside a two-story building at 4945 Broadway, near West 207th Street, just after 11 p.m., part of a row of commercial buildings, according to the FNDY.

I smelt and saw the smoke driving home from the Bronx on the Deegan, looked like a good job from a far.

I was working and knew it had to be something big to disrupt service on the A line. Came over transit radio as heavy smoke in the system blocking view of the signals. Now I can see why.. 207 street station the last stop is underneath/in front of this building. You can see the elevator in on photo

Its a yoga studio that also branched out into other lifestyle avenues. They held organic cooking classes, local artist fairs, etc. Even if its not your thing, they were an asset to the community.
