I'm getting a headache.  Could it be from the smoke?

Large as sheets of paper, but none have landed on my balcony so I can't identify.  

Blackened debris raining down on the View.

Lots of ambulances heading in and 35-29 now blocked at the northeast loop.

4 helicopoters now.  Wonder what toxic substances I am inhaling or if I should evacuate.

Getting worse, flames are higher than towers of Paseo Bridge.

Helicopters buzzing around like moths to the flame.  Independence Blvd all backed up.

Traffic still going north on bridge but nothing coming over southbound.  Getting hard to breath here.

A dozen or so years ago Miller Nichols wanted to block off Wornal at 46th Terrace and have the block south of it as an art filled plaza.  You know, that diagonal block in front of Houston's.

Appears to a single story structure with a faux two story facade!  Is this the Branson strip?

  All the high rises in DT LA are flat topped.  Required by law to be helicopter accessable.

Theres going to be an open tower like enclosure of the elevator shaft there.

That,s exactly what a KCS VP told a group of us touring the building last fall.
