(Facebook, 爆廢公社二館 photo) TAIPEI (Taiwan News) A major fire erupted at Kaohsiung s Pier-2 Art Center at 1 a.m. Tuesday morning (March 9), forcing the fire department to dispatch 36 fire trucks and 78 firefighters to tackle the blaze. After receiving calls, the Kaohsiung City Fire Department rushed to the intersection of Xinhua Street and Dayong Road in Yancheng District and extinguished the fire after a two-hour effort. It said that the conflagration apparently erupted at the Bicycle Warehouse, which typically serves as an exhibition area and large indoor bazaar. While the cause has yet to be determined, no casualties were reported. Around 1,200 square meters were damaged by the flames, and nearly the entire building was compromised.
