A Puget Sound landmark was threatened by fire on Tuesday, according to KIRO-TV. The apartments in the back of Bob's Java Jive in Tacoma, Washington, were gutted by flames. Firefighters were able to keep the blaze from spreading to the restaurant. However, the water to the giant coffee pot had to be shut off so Java Jive closed for the day. [08/30/1998]
