Heavy fire burns in buildings near Boston Common

A major fire was burning in what appeared to be a pair of buildings in Boston's Theater District Monday night.

The Boston Fire Department shared images of the fire on Stuart Street, one block from the Boston Common at Boylston and Tremont streets. The burning buildings appeared to be the two townhouses that have been home to Jacob Wirth Restaurant.

No injuries were reported, fire officials said. The blaze was estimated to have caused $3 million in damages.

The buildings were under construction, according to the Boston Fire Department. At one point, all their crews were ordered out.
