Very disturbing, I almost wonder if it is personal can't believe there are 4 fires set in such a short period of time.

They're saying now that it's actually five that have occurred (two in one day, each on a separate floor). I think if I lived there, I'd be concerned.

Hi xGrendelx! Good to see you!

Here's the full article but there have been 5 fires in 8 days; all have been determined to be arson.

I hope they catch the person. And speaking of the Rotunda, I personally love the architecture of this building and it has some awesome skyline views especially on the southwest side of the building.

Yeah I would hate to see that building go down. Some of the best architecture in the area, if not the best.

Hello to you too!

I would really hate to see the Rotunda get damaged. It's definitely a landmark, and one of Norfolk's most interesting modern structures. Plus, it's always sad to see people displaced from fires, especially ones that are arson. Hold strong, Rotunda!
