That's an old building 3-4 storey high in Ludwigshafen. Timber stairs
burnt and collapsed before people got out, so there was a picture with a
baby thrown down to authorities before the parents jumped down the 3rd
floor window!
I remember there were a lot of old buildings in Germany, I have seen many
in Munich, Berlin, Frankfurt, Paris, Rome dating back to WW2 era, still in
use as cheap accommodation. They would be below spec even in 60s, but
authorities could not force owners to upgrade them before they could lease
out. I have seen similar buildings in a lot of cities (perhaps not that old
but close), including my home town, Istanbul.

Stewart,
That would be a "social club" hereabouts. There was an apartment
building fire in Germany yesterday or this morning that killed nine
(two children), left many homeless and made the international news
(NPR--Washington DC bureau and not the BBC feed).
