About 150 people are homeless after a fire swept through homes and businesses in Lawrence, Massachusetts on Jan. 21.
The blaze started in a nightclub that was being renovated and spread through 16 buildings.
Only one injury was reported.
At least 50 people spent the night in a Red Cross shelter.
The nightclub owner says he intended to open a bar and restaurant in the space.
He said renovations started about two months ago, and that he put about $300,000 into the building, but now has nothing because he didn't have insurance.
