A fire that broke out in a car park off Jervis street in Dublin city centre on Friday evening has since been brought under control, emergency services have said.
In a photograph shared on social media, dark clouds of smoke were seen billowing out of the building and on to the street.
Shortly before 6.30pm, Dublin Fire Brigade said it has “firefighters responding to a fire in a car park off Jervis Street”.
“Smoke is visible in the area but firefighters in breathing apparatus are on scene dealing with the incident,” a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, said.

Access to Jervis street was also restricted as emergency services battled the blaze.
However, in an updated posted just after 7.30pm, the fire service said: “The fire has now been brought under control and we have started to release fire engines from the scene”.
As a result, the Luas red line service did not run between Smithfield and the Point/Connolly station for around an hour. Services only operated from Tallaght / Saggart to Smithfield.
“This is due to a non Luas related incident at Jervis. We apologise for any inconvenience caused,” a spokesperson for Luas said on social media.
