Fire crews spent much of Thursday morning battling a massive blaze at a market building at the Symons Valley Ranch.

Flames broke out around 6 a.m., and when crews arrived a short time later, the building was already fully engulfed, leading to a second alarm being called.

The market’s roof collapsed around 7:30 a.m.

The area has experienced a destructive fire before — back in 1989, three dance halls on the property burnt down.

The market is a new edition to the ranch, added in 2013.
