Thank-you again to jim for this....

What burned in the Universal fire?

* New York City streetscape: Used in countless movies and television shows. This set burned once before, in 1990, and was rebuilt.

* King Kong: The King Kong exhibit on the Universal Studios tour. The exhibit included a 30-foot-tall moving model of King Kong.

* "Back to the Future" set: The town square, including the courthouse area and the clock tower that plays a central roll in the film. It's now the home of GHOST WHISPERER.

* Video vaults: These vaults contained videos of numerous Universal-produced TV series and movies. Firefighters managed to remove some of the videotapes. "Nothing is lost forever," Universal President Ron Meyer said of the videos.

* Soundstage: At least one full soundstage.
