In some of the photos you note after the fire there are some brick walls standing. they gone now. My son sent me the reason for this. "I cannot find the link now, but I had found a story about a "brick reclamation" project in which some bricks from there were used in another building in BR in the 1960's
here another link to what happen there and I think ghosts too. In another link i read of the ghosts and red blood sheets and flour riseing to this day.

I'm so glad you posted this shot. I skipped back (working my from the newest post to the older ones) to see what the first posting of this was .. and I really like this one better! There is definitely a whitish haze.. and maybe it IS the white flour rising! No matter what it is, it makes the picture wonderful, I like the lighting in this, and maybe that's what gives it that haze. The history is terrific, thanks for all the links, especially the last link, which was really a good one.
