Minot, ND – February 22, 2012 – A fire occurred today at the Chateau Apartment Homes in Minot, North Dakota. The fire began sometime in the early-morning hours and was confined to the complex’s Eastern building located at 1725 2nd Ave SW.
Thankfully, both buildings of the complex are currently vacant for repairs from the 2011 Souris River Flood, and no one has been reported injured due to the incident. No cause for today’s fire has yet been determined.
Construction was currently underway within both the Eastern and Western buildings of the complex. The Eastern edifice of the complex contained 32 of the 64 total apartment units at the Chateau.
The Minot Fire Department was quick to arrive at the scene at the onset of the incident and will work to identify the cause of the fire as soon as it is deemed safe to do so. We at IRET are extremely grateful for their work to ensure that the nearby neighborhood, its people, and property were never in any danger from today’s unfortunate fire at the Chateau Apartment Homes.
