Midtown Manhattan fire sends thick smoke billowing from a rooftop building near the St. Patrick’s Day Parade route in New York City. FDNY crews rushed to 6 East 43rd Street Tuesday morning after smoke was seen pouring from the top of the Midtown structure, drawing a major emergency response in one of the busiest areas of Manhattan. Fire officials say the smoke appeared to come from a large rooftop air conditioning vent. Firefighters were seen pouring water onto the flames while the building was evacuated as a precaution. Authorities confirmed no injuries have been reported so far, but officials are warning of traffic delays, road closures, and possible transit disruptions across Midtown Manhattan as emergency crews remain on scene. The fire is unfolding just blocks from Fifth Avenue, where crowds are gathering for the annual New York City St. Patrick’s Day Parade. While officials say the parade has not been impacted, the heavy FDNY presence and smoke in the area are drawing attention from residents, commuters, and visitors across Manhattan, Times Square, Bryant Park, and Grand Central Terminal.
