Damage from a row house fire in Walkerville this weekend is now estimated at up to $1.8 million.
Six 105 year old units at Argyle Road and Devonshire Court went up in flames at around 3 a.m. on Saturday. John Lee, Chief Fire Prevention Officer at Windsor Fire and Rescue Services, said the fire started inside 1264 Argyle but the Ontario Fire Marshal investigation continues to find the cause.
Nobody was hurt but several people were displaced.
It took 44 firefighters to put out the blaze.
The fire was declared out around 5 p.m. on Saturday.
Damaged was initially estimated at $1.2 million.
Lee adds the units were old but in compliance with the Ontario building code.
He said everyone is insured.
Lee adds that the units will likely be demolished.
Investigation concluded Monday evening, but is expected to resume Tuesday morning.
