I feel your pain and it works out okay for you. I had my first home burn down due to my toddler son playing with a lighter. So, I know how you feel. At least you or no one else was hurt.

Very sorry for your loss. I'm sure you did everything possible to try and fight the fire. Be thankful that it was only a material loss, at least you made it to safety. You or a family member could have been badly burned or worse. Hopefully your insurance will cover your loss fully and you can plan a new garage workshop.

You might look into codes and regs as a replacement building might be exempt from some of those because it is a replacement of an existing structure.
so sorry for your loss!!
I always hate to see old buildings like that go away, it's a part of American heritage.

Have any pictures of FD on scene? Sorry about your loss. Passed experiance shows most people do not carry enough insurance to replace what they had. Infact most of the time people end up with half of the replacement cost and they usually blow it on other things.

Fire safety and prevention are usually the last thing on our minds. I am just as guilty as anyone else not having all of my bases covered. I would imagine that you will at minimum have a standard fire extinguisher in your next building.

Again, sorry for your loss and wish you best of luck. Glad nobody was injured.

Check into that. Maybe if you got a building with a similar design or look, they would accept that. If they say no right away, ask again at the public meeting.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
