BALTIMORE (AP) – Baltimore officials have shut down an arts building for safety violations and evicted dozens of tenants three days after a fire at a California warehouse-turned artists’ enclave killed 36 people.

The Baltimore Sun reports officials boarded up the two-story Bell Foundry arts building in the Station North arts and entertainment district on Monday.

Fire department spokesman Roman Clark says inspectors responding to a complaint found no valid permit, unsafe conditions and other violations.

City housing department spokeswoman Tania Baker says tenants may not use the building again until the building is up to code.

The Bell Foundry was designated in 2002 as an area for artist work spaces and galleries.

A fire late Friday broke out in a cluttered Oakland, California, warehouse that had been converted to artists’ studios, killing 36 people.
