Its mainly because the ashes from the fire from the huge smoke cloud fell on the rooftops and started setting them on fire. Theyre like checking everyone's roofs for ashes. My friend sent me pics of chunks of ashes falling in front of her house the size of this:


Notice the iPod touch for size comparison:

Vancouver Sun:
The development, "The Remy," at 9388 Cambie, was to be a 188-unit condo development that would include varied affordable-housing options.

Ground was broken in June of 2010, and Premier Gordon Campbell was on hand to mark the occasion; taking advantage of building-code changes introduced in 2009, The Remy was to be one of the first developments in B.C. to go more than four storeys high using wood, rather than concrete.

But in 2009, according to news reports, Richmond Fire Rescue warned the taller wood buildings could be a fire hazard, as the city's ladder trucks could only reach 18 metres — around 12 metres short of a six-storey building.

Speaking to the Richmond Review in 2010, Campbell noted that the building-code changes came with new fire safety standards, including a requirement for sprinklers that extended to balconies.

"This is done up to the most modern standards... It's safe and secure housing for everyone," he said.

Built by Oris Developments, The Remy was expected to be completed by December.
