Follow Up: What is next for the buildings destroyed in Birmingham fire?

VIDEO: Crews began boarding up windows and installing security fencing around the remains of three buildings destroyed in a massive fire in Birminghamโ€™s Five Points South last week. Kinsey Copeland, an aesthetician at Blush salon, said she feels numb seeing what remains of the business she called home.

โ€œItโ€™s so sad to see something that we all worked on and poured our hearts and souls into and just the historic landmark that this is,โ€ Copeland said. Copeland said the salon is looking for a new home. Since the group of women who worked there were close, she said the plan is to stick together.

โ€œWeโ€™re on the hunt. Weโ€™re looking. We know God will provide something when the time is right. Hopefully sooner than later, but itโ€™s a waiting game at this point,โ€ Copeland said. While Blush searches for a new location, the apartments down Cobb Lane may be salvageable, according to Frank Williams with Servpro Birmingham.
