Firefighters arrived on scene to find light smoke coming from a 2-story apartment building. They forced entry into the complex gate and began an offensive attack on the fire. The unit and walkway were boarded up and the unit appeared to be under construction. Crews located electrical wiring which had some charring around the affected area. The smoke had spread up the wall and into the attic area. There was no fire extension found and the scene was declared under control. Firefighters from Stations 78, 83, 49, 57 and 75 responded to this incident.
