The corner Harwood structure does not appear on the 1882 Sanborn map made after the 1882 fire, so it was torn down or was moved between the street fight and that time. The Harwood house on lot 2 is shown on the 1889 Sanborn map but not the 1904 one, so it disappeared during that period.
I don't know where the date of 1912 came from for Fly's burning down. I too have seen it several times. The date Fly's actually burned was July 2, 1915. Lynn Bailey's book TOMBSTONE: "TOO TOUGH TO DIE" has that date. Also, tucsonfirefoundation.com has clippings from the July 3, 1915 Bisbee Daily Review and Douglas Dispatch International stating that the fire started around 3 o'clock on July 2, 1915. The Epitaph reported it in the July 4, 1915 edition.
Hope this helped,
