Toronto fire officials said the blaze was contained to a three-storey building under renovation.
Deputy Fire Chief Jim Jessop said the roof of the building collapsed but no injuries were reported.
Authorities do not believe the fire is suspicious and that preliminary investigation results indicate the blaze started on the main floor and spread up the wall assembly into the attic space.
The estimated cost of the damage is unknown.
