The Paris Fire Brigade says the structure of the famed Notre Dame cathedral has been saved, along with the site's main works of art, after 400 firefighters spent more than nine hours Monday battling a fire that caused massive damage. As VOA's Michael Brown reports Parisians and admirers of the landmark building are consoling one another over the devastation, occurring days before cathedral was to host Easter mass.
