Portion of J&DR Court Collapses

The Hook reports on their blog that a portion of the under-renovation Juvenile & Domestic Relations Courthouse on High St. collapsed a few hours ago. Charlottesville blogger Michael Prichard says that it appeared to be empty at the time of the collapse, while another commenter says that the workers previously managed to set the building on fire. The Hook’s got pictures, too—it looks like quite a mess.

6:15pm Update: Jordan Conley has a few great photos in his Flickr stream [1, 2, 3].

    NBC 29 has their truck there this afternoon…so if you catch the 11pm news you can probably learn more.

    What was he telling us when it caught on fire? I think what he’s really telling us is to hire a new contractor.
