“At this time, we’re not sure if it’s weather related because it is very windy, or if it was just age related and it just happened to come down today,” Dayton Fire Department District Chief Nick Judge said.
The Montgomery County Auditor website indicates that this building was built in 1910, making it 115 years old.
Photos from the scene show a large chunk of a building missing and bricks on the ground.
The damage is just steps away from the Dayton Inspires mural, which is a popular photo stop.
News Center 7 crews are on scene working to learn more information.
