Around two hundred fire fighters took part in battling the flames.
Twenty-seven fire fighters and five residents were injured the over night blaze.
Fire officials estimate that about a third of the one hundred and eighty apartments were damaged by flame, smoke, and or water.
The flames spread so fast, that many residents only escaped with what they were wearing, some were unable to get pets out.
Residents in non damaged units were allowed back in by the afternoon, but for many nothing was saved.
