WATCH: Williamsburg Loft Fire Drives Half-Naked Hipsters Onto Sidewalk

A fire on Monday afternoon at East Williamsburg’s notorious McKibbin Street Lofts (actual Wikipedia page here) drove loft dwellers onto the sidewalk below as firefighters battled flames, according to an Instagram video recorded by Aaron Watkins, a show host for BRIC TV.

The video, which includes a barely-safe-for-work cameo from one scruffy young resident wearing nothing but a bath towel, is embedded below.

An FDNY spokesman confirmed to Patch that firefighters responded to a blaze on the third story of a ”residential building” at 255 McKibbon Street around 4:10 p.m.

The fire was declared under control about 20 minutes later, at 4:31 p.m., the spokesman said. (He could not immediately provide information on what started the fire. “We won’t have a cause for a while,” he said.)

No injuries resulted from the flames, according to the FDNY.

Watkins’ video shows multiple firefighters running into the building’s entryway as a fire truck raises its ladder to the roof.

The ”complaints” page for the McKibbin Street Lofts on the NYC Department of Buildings website is a veritable glossary of everything that could go wrong with a building: obstructed sprinkler systems, illegal gas lines for heaters and stoves, illegal subdivisions of apartments into more and more apartments, basement concerts, liquor sales, residents ignoring vacate orders, illegal construction, poop smells, broken plumbing, etc., etc. It might even be impressive, if it didn’t sound like such an urban explosion waiting to happen.
