A home under renovation on Harding Ave. in Scarborough partially collapsed on Saturday morning causing a family to flee the stricken building. It ocurred mid-morning at the home near Kingston Rd. and Birchmount Ave. Homeowner Rick Saye told CP24 that he was about to get a shower when he heard some loud cracking. He says that he then heard his son calling out for him and ran downstairs. “I heard some cracking upstairs and then I heard my son downstairs and he yelled for me. I came down and then we just heard things start to move. Nothing had really fallen at that point, just cracks on the walls,” he said. Saye said that about 45 minutes after he and the rest of his family got of the house, the brick exterior on its north side collapsed.
