A fire at the Marconi Multicultural Event Centre on Tuesday night resulted in significant damage to a laundry room in the basement of the building.
Sault Ste. Marie Fire Services responded to a report of a fire at a commercial building in the 400 block of Albert St. W shortly before 9 p.m., according to a news release issued today.
Firefighters encountered heavy amounts of smoke upon entry to the basement of the building. Crews were able to contain and extinguish the fire.
Algoma Public Health also responded after being called to the scene.
No injuries were reported.
The fire also resulted in smoke damage in other areas of the building.
An employee of the Marconi told SooToday that staff are cleaning up the laundry room as a result of smoke coming from the dryers last night.
It's unlikely that takeout food will be available today.
