Mulligan’s Brick Bar on Allen Street is set to be demolished Tuesday morning after a large fire broke out early Sunday morning, causing an estimated total of $2.1 million in damage, city officials said.

The findings of the Buffalo Fire Department and ATF were released Monday night after what the city called a "thorough investigation."

Brick Bar is the second bar that has been destroyed by fire in the Allentown neighborhood in less than a year. Its next-door neighbor, The Old Pink was destroyed by a fire on June 17, 2024. The Buffalo man accused of setting fire to that building, John Burns of Buffalo, has been indicted by a federal grand jury on arson and attempted arson charges.
