Three women escape house fire in Phinney Ridge

Meghan Walker Ballard

A fire in a house on Phinney Ridge last night is under investigation. Three women were able to exit the home at 6511 2nd Ave NW prior to Seattle Fire’s arrival; there were no reported injuries.

Seattle Fire tells us the cause is still under investigation; however, they do know that the fire started on the exterior and spread to the interior of the house. The estimated loss is $275,000.

We’ll update with any new information.

    1. Thank you for so quickly expressing your concern for the women involved and leading an effort to make sure they’re going to be ok.

      I’m glad we could all come together in this moment to focus on what’s important. It’s folks like you that make Ballard such a wonderful community.

      3. To be fair, Harley lives in Interbay.

        Every morning, he glares across the water, seething at Ballard and it’s happy populace. With an heart of ice, he fantasizes about the day he can turn Ballard in to the dystopian wasteland he so wishes upon it.

        With malice in his eyes and hate on his tongue, he rolls up his sleeves and surfs to My Ballard…

        1. *First* thing Harley does is call up Preston and ask him if he got a job yet. “No? Me either.” THEN they both log on, glare across the water, and they both keep posting until their Depends are full.

  2. Glad to see that these women escaped unharmed and are all safe. If any of them needs a place to stay I live in north Ballard. I have a king size bed with clean sheets and a set of “my pillows”. And I give really nice back and foot rubs and deep tissue massages.

  3. Faulty BBQ perhaps? Many people having remodeling done to these days, and it takes just takes 1 minor mistake, such as oily rags that combust spontaneously. Hope they’re all OK and had insurance.
