Bayville Lobster House Fire

There was a fire at the Bayville Lobster House on Sunday evening resulting in the loss of a historical building in the Bayville Commons built sometime during the turn of the century. Along with the Bayville Fire Company multiple area fire departments responded to the blaze and did an incredible job at protecting the nearby exposures. This was a close one. The entire row of stores on that corner could have easily been lost due to the older type of construction and the proximity of the buildings. Despite the intensity of the fire there were no major injuries. Residents living above the restaurant were taken to the hospital for observation and later released.

    This terrible loss should be a wake up call for the Building Inspector - how many more properties in Bayville are at risk? What other nightmares are the volunteer firefighters to face? The building dept in Bayville is long overdue for an overhaul but it will only happen if enough residents speak out.
