The fire at a heritage building in downtown Montreal is still burning Friday morning, with Environment Canada issuing a special bulletin on poor air quality and reduced visibility due to the smoke.
"The fire seems to have spread to the roof," said McGill University professor Daniel Beland on social media, sharing video of the blaze.
A section of Sherbrooke St. was closed to traffic between Saint-Laurent Blvd and l'Hôtel-de-Ville Ave. Saint-Laurent Blvd is also inaccessible between Ontario and Sherbrooke streets.Friday morning, Environment Canada said pollution levels were "higher than normal" in the area due to the blaze. Inside, there is a daycare, a seniors' home, condominiums, a housing co-op, and a concert hall, which is recognized by the city as "one of the most prestigious" music spaces in Montreal.
