So that's how the affluent percentage lives.  As soon as I find my other wallet, I'm buying that!

I love that the view looks DOWN on the 'tallest' building! Hah!

I would buy the penthouse, but I'm assuming Mr. Giarratanna does not accept expired Blockbuster cards for payment.

If that thing sells, the developers of the stalled Ritz are probably going to soil their undergarments.

505 Church experienced a fire this morning. The fire began on the 27th floor and, although the fire suppression system extinguished that fire, water from the suppression started an electrical fire on the 24th floor. Nashville Fire Department crews extinguished that second fire. See below:

 

 

According to NewsChannel5, the building's fire alert system did not alert all residents immediately. Instead, "firefighters had to knock on all 528 units to evacuate people..."

Edited to clarify that the fire alert system may have notified *some* residents immediately, but it did not notify *all* residents immediately.

That is NOT good. 
Hope the building management is able to correct this situation promptly!

What kind of water damage does this cause? Minor or major? How long to fix this type of situation?

It said on ABC local news that it all started because someone had a wicker basket on top of a stove burner!  I'd hate to be the idiot who did that!  I've got sprinklers like that in my unit and can only imagine what it would do to personal belongings and anything electrical like computers or televisions.  It made me wonder how the sprinklers are set up, it sounds like every sprinkler on the entire floor must turn on, not just the unit that has the fire! I was watching them all morning, there were fire trucks and police for two blocks!

It could be days before the 300 residents on floors 3 thru 29 of 505 Tower will be allowed back in.  The primary issue is restoring power.  Floors 30-45 are fine, because they are on a separate power source.

All this because someone put a wicker basket on the stove top! Really? Come on !
