Downtown Rainbow House Burns
Last updated: Thursday May 2nd, 11:22am
The house known as the rainbow house on Ouellette Avenue next to the Downtown Mission caught fire late Wednesday.
The fire broke out just before midnight and burned for several hours.
The boarded up house had been the site of previous fires and last September it was painted by local artists.
No injuries were reported and officials say the building will be demolished due to damages sustained in the fire.
The Windsor Police Arson Unit is treating the fire as suspicious.
