They're reporting a "large volume of fire" still coming out of the roof.
They have water handlines into the building, the attic is engulfed. They are trying to open up the ceiling to get at the fire.
Pretty eerie hearing the dispatch over the scanner with the fireman gasping for air as he speaks. Totally respect what they do.
They are about to open the ceiling, asking all teams to vacate the building before they do.
Now reporting propane tanks in the basement, in the main fire building.
This is based on listening to the online scanner...

The updated incident address is 4331 5TH AV NW
The Swedes are starting to get some photos up on the home page now: http://www.myballard.com/2011/12/16/huge-fire-near-fremontballard-border/
Although that looks like it from the photos I've seen, I believe the structures on fire are in the small alley between 5th and 6th.
You guys rock! I was not in the neighborhood last night and didn't even know about this!
