- Description:On March 17, 2026, in New York, USA, @TiGermanNYC shared a video capturing a major fire in Midtown. In the video, filmed from 1133 6th Avenue on the 44th floor, flames engulf the top of a nearby high-rise building while thick black smoke rapidly spreads across the skyline. According to reports, the fire broke out earlier that morning on the rooftop of a building near East 43rd Street, close to the route of the annual New York City St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Authorities said the blaze likely originated in the building’s HVAC or cooling system and triggered a large emergency response.
