UPDATED: 99 Cent Store in Inwood Suffers Major Fire

Thanks to Jessica, ace reporter, for the photo.

Few details so far, but the much beloved (at least in this household) 99 Cent Zone on West 207th Street, between Broadway and Vermilyea caught fire overnight. The store is clearly closed indefinitely, which means many workers are out of a job and Inwood will have to shop elsewhere for clear plastic tubs, balloons and miscellaneous household products.

More details about the fire can be read on the Manhattan Times.
