KimberlySayWhat Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 I enjoy this place and I hope they'll be able to salvage it. The news upset me. North Dallas museum on fire 12:23 PM CDT on Tuesday, June 28, 2005 From WFAA-TV Staff Reports Dallas Fire-Rescue personnel are currently battling a five-alarm fire at the Biblical Arts Center museum and theater near NorthPark Mall in North Dallas. The fire was first reported shortly after 11 a.m. at the center, located in the 7500 block of Park Lane at Boedeker Drive just west of Central Expressway. Firefighters worked to open up more vents as smoke billowed from the roof. Smoke could be seen billowing from the roof, and scanner reports indicated heavy fire on the building's interior. Multiple fire personnel could be seen entering and exiting the building, and both Park Lane and Boedeker Drive are closed in the vicinity. The Biblical Arts Center is a non-denominational, non-profit organization with a mission to help people "more clearly envision the places, events and people of the Bible." The building contains various exhibits and works of art, including an enormous oil painting 124 feet long by 20 feet high, depicting the Miracle at Pentecost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
