Road blocked at NOLA turn from bridge. Significant flames and smoke with equipment still arriving. SBR front desk said she "heard" that it was either Topper's or Domino's. Can't get close enough to confirm but I guess no croissants this am from La Sucriere

Thank you. I forgot that. It's quite a way from there, other side f Fed X and Island 92 building.

Check Island 92 FB page for some amazing pictures. Dr Soc is off air.

Other buildings in the area are lucky to have survived, considering how close they were.

Was that the new place that the owner pissed off the neighborhood and government officials by blaring music very loud late at night? Never been there.

I couldn't reach Dr. Soc today, but the radio station was still down this morning. I wanted to suggest a reopening song from the following list:

Burning down the house
We didn't start the fire
Smoke on the Water
