Two more historic homes in downtown Little Rock went up in flames on Saturday night.
Now, the Quapaw Quarter Association's push for code changes and security for vacant homes is getting stronger.
Patricia Blick, the executive director of the Quapaw Quarter Association, said when she woke up Sunday morning and heard that two more houses were caught in the flames, she was mortified. "It was out of control, out of control," she said.
Blick said "unmanageable" is how neighbors described the fire that burned one historic home to the ground.
"I think this one is pretty far gone. I don't know if it's feasible to consider rehabilitation of what's left," she said.
The house fire on 1419 S. Commerce Street is just one example of the ongoing problem Blick said they are fighting against.
