I have lived in that building for almost 20 years (since it was built). My wife and I are 'homeless' and will be for a while. We're being told that there's a possibility the building may never be safe. Repair, reconstruction could take up to 18 months.

The fire department told us the night of the fire that there was 3 feet of standing water on the 4th floor.

(We're not actually homeless. It's been a scramble but we have housing. As always, people in Calgary have provided unbelievable levels of support. It's going to be a long slog.)
