A four-alarm fire in Greenpoint engulfed one residential building and made two others uninhabitable last night. The fire started around 10 p.m. in a three-story building at 47 Diamond Street between Nassau and Driggs Avenues and quickly spread to the two neighboring homes, sending residents fleeing into the bitter cold.

Over 140 firefighters fought the blaze, with four minor injuries reported, including two firefighters. Larry the Cat was rescued from one neighboring building, according to NBC NY.

The cause of the fire is under investigation. ABC 7 reports that one building was completely destroyed, while the neighboring two buildings have been declared structurally unsound.

"You could see the embers in the air, it was just like swirling," one witness told NBC New York. "I guess the wind was carrying it. Then the fire just kept growing and growing. They said everyone should move back because there was this popping noise. Things were exploding."

NBC also reports that Diamond Street "was like an ice skating rink early Monday from all the water used to extinguish the fire."

Several residents were reportedly provided emergency shelter by Red Cross, while others were taken in by neighbors.

Fire three doors down. Thanks to my awesome neighbors and Greenpoint friends checking up on me. I'm safe but my apartment stinks like a campfire. I hope everyone else is safe. #citylife #fdny #fire A photo posted by Katie Osgood Photography (@kosgoodphoto) on Feb 14, 2016 at 9:16pm PST

Earlier on Sunday night, six firefighers and one civilian sustained minor injuries in a fire in Fort Greene.
