A large volume of smoke had been seen billowing from one of the entrances to the building.

“All persons have been accounted for,” a Queensland Fire and Emergency Service spokeswoman said.

No injuries were reported but Milton Road was closed to traffic as a result of the fire, causing traffic chaos in the area.

It has now re-opened, but Paten St is still closed.
