The apartment building in Lowell where seven people were killed in a fire was set to be demolished today, but a court order will postpone the demolition as the victims families ask for further investigation.
WCVB reported that attorney Douglas Sheff, who is representing the families, filed a temporary restraining order that will put the demolition on hold until a hearing on extending the restraining order will be held Thursday in Middlesex Superior Court.
According to CBS Boston, Sheff hopes to work with city officials to investigate the fire further, including looking into whether the buildings alarm system was working properly. The report said city records showed a March 2013 inspection found everything in working order, but that police and fire crews responding to Thursdays fire did not hear any alarms going off inside the building.
The fire killed five members of a family, including three children, who lived in a third floor apartment in the building. Two other people were killed in a separate third floor unit.

Residents work with city, builders to slow demolitions
Recent controversies over the proposed demolition of three historic homes proves the city is not doing enough to protect such culturally significant properties, say local preservationists and neighborhood activists.
Some advocates are proposing changes to city policies to reduce the growing number of demolitions and save more older homes. None of their proposals has been adopted.
Two of the recently contested homes are in Northwest Portland and one is in the Laurelhurst neighborhood. All three were on the Historic Resources Inventory compiled by the city in 1984.
Being on the list is supposed to trigger a public notice and 120-day delay before demolition can start. But in all three cases, developers requested the homes be taken off the list the same day they applied for the demolition permits, and the citys Bureau of Development Services complied.
The most recent home to become the focus of such a conflict is the Markham House at 3206 N.E. Glisan St. Built in 1911, it was the first house in what would become the Laurelhurst neighborhood, serving as the office for the realtor who sold the homes built in the following years. The Historic Resources Inventory listing for the house describes the style as California Mission and says it features include a gable roof finished with glazed clay tiles and exterior finished in smooth stucco. One side of the Laurelhurst Gate announcing the entrance to the neighborhood is on the northwest corner of the property.
Despite its historic significance, the house and grounds have fallen into disrepair. In recent years, the sloped driveway to a garage in the back of the house was bulldozed and replaced with a flat parking slab. The front porch and parts of the exterior walls were covered with newer tiles. Cracks are showing in some exterior walls and the garage appears on the verge of falling down. The interior, though largely complete, is dirty and in need of numerous repairs.
The previous owners sold the house on a short sale to developer Peter Kusyk. He is considering replacing it with two homes, which is allowed under the existing zoning because the lot can be divided. Or he might be willing to work with a buyer who wants to renovate it.
Although neighbors heard the house might be for sale, they were surprised when Kusyk bought it because there had been no advertising, lawn signs or open houses. Jennifer Moffatt, who lives just east of the house on Glisan, heads a group of neighbors opposed to the potential demolition and redevelopment project. It includes a Facebook page and online petition opposing the demolition.
If there was a requirement that the sale or demolition of historic homes be publicized, preservationists might step forward and buy them, says Kusyk.
