Demolition Looms for Historic Pulaski Library in Rochester Following Devastating Fire

The former Pulaski Library in Rochester, New York, a historic building that has been vacant for nearly three decades, suffered significant damage in an early morning fire. Firefighters faced challenges due to the Spanish-tile roof, but the fire was eventually brought under control. No injuries were reported, and the cause of the fire is currently under investigation. City officials have determined that the building poses a significant danger and will need to be demolished. The library, constructed in 1931, holds historical significance for the community, particularly for Polish and Polish American citizens.
