VIDEO: A long-treasured bit of history in Dade County has been deemed a loss after an overnight fire Wednesday. The Frye House, which is currently known as the site of Valley Venues, was hit by fire and despite the efforts of multiple firefighting agencies, was left severely damaged. The roof of the building caved in as a result of the fire, with gaping holes visible. A post from Dade County government on their Facebook page mourned the loss of the building, noting the sad news and thanking firefighters for their efforts. Various mutual aid groups assisted in fighting the blaze, including Chattanooga’s ladder truck, with a request for Walker County Fire, DeKalb County, Jackson County, and McKemore Fire.
