We at the Kerrisdale Business Association were shocked and saddened to learn of the serious fire in our Village near West 41st & Maple Street last night.
To all those impacted we send our concerned thoughts and best wishes for a speedy reconstruction. We would also like to commend the swift reaction of Vancouver’s finest Fire Fighters and the VPD for all they did to divert traffic and subdue the flames thereby preventing the spread of the conflagration.
We’ll keep you posted.
