Nearly 100 residents of a transitional housing apartment building that caught fire Friday night have returned to the facility at 306 N. Brooks St. near the UW-Madison campus. However, 16 women whose rooms were too severely damaged will move around the corner to St. Francis House Episcopal Student Center, said Dave Black, a St. Francis House board member. Black said the church plans to deconstruct the residential part of its building soon to make way for a student housing project, but for now, the building has enough vacant living space ? including bedrooms, a kitchen and showers ? to accommodate the women.
