  i believe in the 80’s they had another extra alarm fire in the same building and possibly one after that also

  Some useless trivia: Its the 3-11 on 11/20/1963 in the Mr Adams restaurant (address of 4570 N Broadway) in the block long McJunkin Bldg (4554 N Broadway)

  Good catch Drew. I’m thinking the address should be around 4550 N. Broadway as it’s south of Wilson.

  Jimmy think you’re correct.

  Kind of looks like the building on the southwest corner of Wilson and Broadway
