When the fire started, crews blocked traffic from driving on Marquette Street between 4th and 6th Streets.

At 6:40 a.m. police said the street was "still closed due to the accumulation of ice on the street from water used to fight a structure fire..."

The fire department said the temperature will have to get up to about 20 degrees before the roadway can be salted.
