Two-and-a-half years after a devastating fire nearly ended a future for Whiskey Row, a lawsuit has been filed against the contractor.
Arson investigators ruled that one of the workers accidentally started the fire while using a torch. The enormous flames brought downtown to a halt in July of 2015. The fire left extensive damage and demanded the full force of the Louisville Fire Department.
On Monday, Main Street Revitalization, LLC filed suit in Jefferson Circuit Court. The group alleged that Sullivan and Cozart Inc., and its insurance company, Cincinnati Insurance Company, have failed to honor contract agreements and pay back over $2 million in damages from the fire.
