Summary
Sad photo of the B&O YMCA a couple weeks after the November 7, 1980 fire. According to records, the street was closed and the building was put under constant watch for a few days. The Veterans Day Parade was re-routed in fear of a rekindling, yet it stayed up through the holiday season, and finally the remains were demolished in January of 1981.
