475 Kent St 2On a freezing cold Sunday night, January 20th, about two hundred of us, all of us artists, some of us with children, were standing out on the sidewalk in front of the building in shock, wondering what was going on. Police cars cordoned off the block; fire trucks lined the block on both sides of the street. 475 Kent Avenue was filled with policemen and firemen.
