NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — There’s an update on a fire in the East Village that left the Middle Collegiate Church in ruins.
Fire officials say the cause of the Dec. 5 fire was an electrical problem, and it is not suspicious.
There is also a sign of hope.
As work continues to stabilize @middlechurch, our engineers have found that the church’s historic “New York Liberty Bell” was not damaged during last week’s devastating fire.
