Ice Blocks Building Was Set For Renewal Before Destructive Fire

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) – The Ice Blocks building stood for a hundred years, but it recently became a symbol of revival on R Street.
People were as excited for this project as they are over the arena. But now firefighters are taking the place of construction workers.
Flames shot up over an entire city block of Midtown Sacramento as the building burned Saturday morning. The historic Ice Blocks building, once made up of old thick wood and brick, now is demolished into a pile of smoky rubble.
