A fire caused major damage to the 35 XXXV Gentlemen’s Club in Sayreville on Friday afternoon.

Smoke was seen pouring from the roof of the building as of shortly before 3 p.m. from the fire. At one point before 3 p.m., flames shot from the roof of the one-story building.

The club was open when the flames broke out, but there were no injuries, according to Fire Chief Jonathan Magaw. A 9-1-1 caller reported the fire around 1:40 p.m., leading to a response from 65 firefighters from all four of the borough’s fire companies.

Construction officials would need to assess the damage, the fire chief said at the scene. Part of the front roof collapsed during the fire. Crews were dousing small areas of fire after the blaze was declared under control.

The cause of the fire was under investigation, the chief said.

Police said the ramp from Route 35/9 to Old Route 4 was closed because of the blaze. Other roads were closed in the area too.

A crowd was gathered outside the club Friday afternoon watching the fire.
