Crews arrived to find heavy black smoke coming from the first floor of 736 Lumber. Limited manpower forced a second alarm to be struck for backup and assistance. Crews advanced a hoseline into the front door and found the bulk of the fire in the rear of 736 but not before it extended into the second floor and breached the wall into 738 Lumber.
