Flames could be seen shooting through the roof before the fire was brought under control around 6:30 a.m., about three hours after firefighters were called to the scene.

No one was injured in the blaze, according to the Philadelphia Fire Department.

With temperatures below freezing, firefighters could be seen throwing salt on the ground to stop the runoff water from icing over.

"There were a lot of challenges last night, obviously with the freezing conditions and the water, that creates a hazard for our first responders," Executive Chief Daniel McCarty said at the scene.

There's no word on how the fire started. Crews were called out before 4 a.m.
