Morrisania, the epicenter of 1970s arson and poster child for most Americans' Escape From the Bronx nightmares, was struck by a massive fire shortly after 6:30 this morning. It apparently started on the third floor of 1270 Gerard Avenue, and rapidly engulfed other floors as well as the roof. Over 200 firefighers were needed to get the fire under control, and apparently 20 were inured. Over 100 families were affected by the fire. And tonight, a number of families are left homeless as a result.
