The Super Cuts storefront sustained heavy damage, with moderate damage to other stores, fire officials said.
Kingston police said the plaza is a multiple unit commercial space, and multiple businesses were forced to close for the day.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation, but police said initial assessments appear to show that it was the result of a mechanical failure in the HVAC system.
