The Windsor Tower on the Paseo Castellana caught fire last night and a good chunk of the upper floors tumbled to the street below. The rest of the tower is still burning but still standing. It is a total loss and there are fears of it collapsing.

Reuters UK article on the fire

What a shame! A large burned-out hulk on the Castellana will not look good for the Olympic committee. At least no one was killed or seriously hurt.
