Super Grocer has been deemed unstable after a fire ripped through it Friday.

Steveston Seafood House is temporarily closed due to a fire at Super Grocer & Pharmacy.

A fire ripped through the 65-year-old building that housed the grocery store on No. 1 Road in the heart of Steveston village on Friday night.

The seafood restaurant posted a notice that is temporarily closed "due to damage from the fire next door." They said they hope to be open again "as soon as possible."

Super Grocer has posted a notice on its website saying structural engineers have found the surviving grocery building to be unstable, and plans are underway to demolish it.

The pharmacy is planning to set up an office to deal with its customers and says a notice of whom to call will be posted soon at SuperGrocer.ca. The notice further added that they plan to re-open the pharmacy when they find a suitable site.

The City of Richmond put out a public notice for anyone dependent on medications at Super Grocer, saying they should take their prescription or pill bottle and a valid piece of ID to another pharmacy or their doctor for an emergency supply.
