Firefighters were called to another fire at a home under construction early Thursday morning – the third in the past seven days.
The blaze at a six-suite housing project on 92 Avenue and 81 Street was reported just after midnight.
Neighbours said they were awoken by the flames, with one reporting a loud boom.
"When I heard it, I was just about to go to bed," one neighbour named Pete said.
"I thought it was a noise in a build that was happening near us, thought somebody was stealing material … as I was running out the front door, I spotted the fire down the block."
Pete said he ran to the house next door to the fire to alert the people inside.
"Pounded on the door. Nobody came up, so then I slipped over here to the window and pounded on the window," he said.
