Roof of the New York Fed catches fire

Fire broke out late Saturday

Fire fighters were called to extinguish a fire on the roof of the 14-storey New York Fed. Much of the open market operations are managed from the NY Fed but early reports suggest the damage isn't major.

The FDNY said a generator on the roof of the building started a fire in the chimney.
