Camden Market is on Fire Again

Amazing how many of these developer-friendly fires there are

Who can forget the two fires that took hold of Brighton's West Pier? A Victorian structure out at sea what wasn't physically connected to the land when the fires took place.

I went down just now. The damage is way smaller than it looks from the pictures above - the fire doesn't appear to have gone very far, and the ground floors look mostly undamaged from the outside. The two floors above Honest Burger seem pretty much burnt out and it's spread a little way further into the middle of the block (which you can't see from the outside so not sure how much was burnt). Hardly "ripping through Camden Market" - it would be hard for a fire to go very far there anyway even if it was much more serious.
