SAN MARCOS, Texas — Crews on Thursday were spotted with heavy machinery demolishing portions of the Iconic Village apartments, where a tragic fire ripped through numerous units and claimed the lives of five young adults.
As far as the future of the plot where the apartments once stood, that is yet to be determined.
A spokesperson for the City of San Marcos said the future of the plot is up to the developer and owner of the apartments, who is currently still facing a legal battle with the families of the people affected.
Months after the tragedy, further investigation led officials to believe the fire was set intentionally and they ruled the five deaths as homicides. That investigation is ongoing.
