This morning around 7:00 am, there was a serious three-alarm fire at 5401 Seventh Avenue in Sunset Park (corner of 54th Street).
As usual, very little is written about this neighborhood – only this one story has been published. See Citizen App videos.

While the fire started around 7 am, right before 9:00 am, the firefighters were calling for more fire trucks to help fight the fire.

The fire started on the first floor. The news said they are still investigating what caused the fire.
