TAKOMA PARK, MD — The former Allen Theater was lost in an early morning fire on December 5. The building had become a furniture store.
The fire on New Hampshire Avenue near East-West Highway was reported just before 2:30 this morning, and went to three alarms before crews got it under control three hours later.
About 120 firefighters from Montgomery and Prince George’s counties responded to the scene.
The cause of the fire is still being determined.
