SHENANDOAH – A collapsing west end apartment building has deteriorated further, and is now leaning on the home next door.
Shenandoah Fire was called to 527-529 West Arlington Street around 4:00pm today for a report of a structural collapse.
Fire officials arrived to find the building, which had suffered a partial collapse in August of 2018, was now leaning on a home at 531 West Arlington.
