Fire at Spring Garden & Budd. (Photo by Scott Buchanan)
Reader Scott Buchanan emailed us with this information:
“…On Monday (Feb. 20) the house at Spring Garden & Budd Street (in West Powelton) burned out. The one resident, an older gentleman named Victor Martinez, had been living there for 14 years but now has no place to go. He’s able to stay at the Red Cross Home through Friday, but he doesn’t have any family and is on a very limited income, which is making finding a new residence extremely difficult.
Another neighbor (Sarah Esposito) and I have been trying to organize the neighbors to help get him afoot again.”
Scott and Sarah have set up this page where you can donate money to help Victor:
