Description
Seattle firefighters responded to Lake Union when two houseboats caught fire on Wednesday afternoon.
Crews responded to the 1800 block of Westlake Avenue North where two houseboats were on fire, according to Seattle Fire. The fire extended to an adjacent building.
The fire was reported under control around 2:30 p.m. and was downgraded from the 2-alarm response.
"It's a very tight community here, I received a text saying there was a fire on the dock and one of my boats was engulfed," said Glenn Froehlich, who owns the houseboat that caught fire.
