Britannia Home Burns to Ground

Jan 12, 2007 - A luxury home in SW Calgary's upscale Britannia neighbourhood burnt to the ground shortly after 4pm Friday afternoon. Coincidentally, I was a mere block away dropping my daughter off at home when the house erupted into flames.

The property, on Madison Ave SW, was a total loss, with damage estimated to be close to $3 million. Former Calgary Mayor Al Duerr says he came home after work today to find fire crews surrounding his and his neighbour's homes. Duerr's home suffered some damage.

No one was hurt in the blaze, and investigators are still looking into the cause.
