Channel 8 reported this about an hour ago, and their sky cam is now pointed at it. Flames are still shooting into the sky.
The place is burning to the ground.
Fire is sweeping through The Radio Tavern, located in the 600 block of Bridge Street in Grand Rapids.
The building was totally engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived.
A witness tells 24 Hour News 8 that a resident in one of the two floors of apartments above The Radio Tavern smelled smoke and evacuated. Police tell us that no one is injured.
Those at a neighboring business, Little Mexico Restaurant, told us their building is shut down because of the heavy smoke.
Police have closed Bridge Street near Stocking Avenue.
Back when I was a rock star, I played at the Radio many, many, many times.
Now it's gone, just like the original Intersection is gone.
