Crews with the Fort Worth Fire Department responded to the second blaze in two weeks at a building in the 700 block of North Main Street early Saturday, officials said.

When crews arrived, heavy fire was coming from the first and second floors of the building, which is vacant, according to a post on the department’s Facebook.

The fire was large, but remained a one-alarm assignment, according to the Facebook post.

Crews pulled water lines to protect other buildings in the area, and the fire was brought under control in a little under an hour, officials said.

The Saturday fire was three doors down from the damaged catering kitchen of Fort Worth chef Tim Love. Love’s kitchen sustained water damage when the warehouse next door to it burned down two weeks ago.

The warehouses are part of the Panther Island development.

No one was injured, and the cause of the fire is under investigation by the department’s Arson Unit.
