Goodbye heritage building. A view across the adjacent construction site as the fire reaches its peak. The hotel is located in a set of low-rise refurbished heritage-protected buildings between the city and the lake foreshores. I think only one of the buildings was burnt, but not sure. Apparently no-one was hurt.
PS Newspaper reports refer to the burnt building as the New Acton Pavilion, not the Diamant Hotel, I gather they are different although the Canberra Times is still calling it "Fire at the Diamant Hotel" so not sure. The burnt building housed several bars and restaurants and some offices.
Canberra Times: "Hundreds of people are lucky to be alive after a ferocious fire destroyed one of Canberra's oldest buildings.
The heritage-listed New Acton Pavilion was engulfed by flames in a mere 20 minutes, shutting down major roads and causing chaos in peak-hour traffic.
Dark clouds of smoke were clearly visible from Parliament House and the far side of Lake Burley Griffin.
Popular eateries Flint Restaurant, Parlour Wine Room and Bicicletta were incinerated, as were the offices of the Molonglo Group, which owns the site.
Fears that the adjacent Diamant Hotel had also been destroyed were later dispelled by authorities. "
