A fire broke into an older brick building housing the popular Maxwell’s American Cafe in Downtown Minneapolis on Wednesday, causing some serious damage with the flames causing the roof to partially collapse.

Firefighting efforts were compounded by sub-zero temperatures that day as the sprayed water instantly frosted the building and surrounding structures, casting a frosty and fascinating mantle over the landscape.

Flickr user Tony Webster has some fascinating images captured at the scene, such as this one (cannot post the image here as all rights are reserved by the photographer).
