Firefighters were working Tuesday afternoon to try to save a building along Lubec’s waterfront that had caught fire.
Photos and video posted on the Lubec Community Bulletin Board on Facebook show that the building is located next to a municipal parking lot at the town’s boat ramp at the north end of Water Street. The photos show flames shooting up from the peak of the roof and large plumes of smoke billowing into the air.
Damage from the fire appears to be extensive.
Firefighters were at the building Tuesday afternoon and were unable to provide details about the blaze, according to people who answered phone calls at the town office and at the fire station. A message sent to the fire chief’s phone was not immediately returned.
