Several small explosions were contained to flammable repair liquids inside of the North Avenue structure, with flames and smoke visible from nearby Newark Airport.

No one was in the building when the blaze broke out around 11 p.m., and could have been burning undetected for part of the day Sunday, officials said.

The cause remains under investigation.
