Anyone working in this space has probably seen this coming. The direction is fine, but the rollout will matter more.

Blake Turner2026-06-13T22:22:17.000Z

Bloody hell, hope everyone got out safe. That's right near the uni halls too.

Casey Adams2026-06-13T22:37:17.000Z

Another fire in the student area? Wonder if it's dodgy wiring or just someone being stupid again.

Ben Sullivan2026-06-13T23:07:17.000Z

I heard it was a rental flat, probably dodgy wiring tbh.

Alex Rivera2026-06-13T22:47:17.000Z

Saw the smoke from my place. Scary stuff. Glad everyone is accounted for.

maybe check your own flat's wiring before it's too late.

nah, they'll be fine. They train for this stuff. Just glad no one died.

Stuff2026-06-13T23:12:17.000Z

I live on Dundas St and my power flickered around that time. Coincidence?

Casey Adams2026-06-13T23:42:17.000Z

just a coincidence. But worth asking the fire service if they know the cause yet.

Sage Lawson2026-06-13T23:32:17.000Z

Check your smoke alarms people! Especially in these old flats. Could've been worse.

Ben Sullivan2026-06-14T01:12:17.000Z

Was just walking past there this morning, still smelled like smoke. Crazy how fast it spread.

You feel this kind of change immediately when you are out and about. bus gang in shambles

This one will land with plenty of people for obvious reasons.. It should not take this much effort for people to feel looked after.

this is the kind of thing locals pick up on straight away.. the fire part is what ppl will argue about. It usually comes down to whether it makes life easier or harder.
