One year after big fire, rebuilding under way at My 'T' Acres
A year ago today, a large black plume of smoke cast a dark shadow over the City of Batavia, alerting many residents to the fact that there was a big fire some place. It turned out to be at My "T" Acres/Call Farms, on Lewiston Road in the Town of Batavia.
Today, the large barn that was destroyed is being rebuilt. Phil Call said it's been a challenging process to get the barn rebuilt, but that it made the most sense to rebuild on the same location on the original foundation. Otherwise, he said, it isn't the Calls way to make a big deal out of such a thing and declined a more detailed interview. He said they were just glad to be rebuilding.
UPDATE: Nate Fix, a lieutenant in the Town of Batavia Fire Department, sent the following pictures he took the day of the fire.
