Fire crews spent early Monday putting out a fire at a community association north of downtown.
The Calgary Fire Department was called around 4:30 a.m. to the Bridgeland Riverside Community Association at 917 Centre Avenue N.E.
Firefighters were able to locate the blaze in the lower level of the building. They were able to extinguish the fire within a couple of hours, yet are expected to be there for quite some time due to the damage.
