Richmond greenhouse destroyed by fire

Smoke could be seen from as far away as the North Shore – as fire consumed a greenhouse at a Richmond plant nursery.
The flames broke out around 7:30pm Saturday night near Westminster Highway and #8 Road.
Ted Townsend with the City of Richmond says no one was hurt.

“There was a couple of semi-trailers and a large propane tank on-site near the greenhouse that they were able to keep the fire from spreading to those.”

Seven units were needed to contain the blaze.
A cause has yet to be determined.
