WATCH: Lansing neighbors shaken after fire damages Woodbridge Manor Apartments
When I visited Sunday afternoon, the 527 building was boarded up and showed visible damage. A fire alarm inside could still be heard beeping.
Neighbor Beverly Schumacher lives in the building next door. She said the fire brought back familiar and unsettling memories, having survived a house fire as a child.
"If the wind had blown it and it caught that, and then it spread, or it spread that way, we would’ve been in a lot of trouble," Schumacher said. "Fire scares me, so this scares me. And to have it that close."
Woodbridge Manor resident Emily Armstrong says the fire served as a wake-up call to be prepared for the unexpected.
"It was scary for sure. I wasn’t expecting that to be going on when I heard the sirens," Armstrong said.
