A fire in the basement of Buk Kyung 2 at the corner of Brighton and Harvard avenues around 8:50 p.m. emptied the restaurant and brought Boston firefighters rushing to the scene.

The intersection was shut to let firefighters work. Traffic in the area gridlocked.
Like the job UHub is doing? Consider a contribution. Thanks!

Maybe misremembering something ... didn't this block have a fire in the 90s that shut the roast beef place down for a while?

The greek diner that used to be where @Union is lit up in the late 2000s. That might be what you're remembering.

I don't recall a fire at Riley's (not saying there wasn't, just honestly don't remember), but in any case Buk Kyung is across the street from that block.

The ones I remember the most from when I worked in the area were the ones at Grecian Yearning (as referenced above where @Union is now) and one at Cafe Belo, in the strip mall that contained a Brooks Pharmacy across from The Silhouette.
