A fire broke out today at the Dream Tower construction site of the Disneyland Hotel. It was reported at 1:31 pm and was quickly put out by 21 Anaheim and Disneyland firefighters.

Heavy smoke poured out of the tower's third floor where remodeling work was being done. A blue plastic tarp caught on fire when welders were working on an outside elevator. The tower was vacant at the time and there were no injuries. Investigations are underway to find out the exact cause of the fire.

ANAHEIM – Firefighters quickly doused a fire that broke out this afternoon at a construction site at the Dream Tower of the Disneyland Hotel, authorities said.
The fire was reported at 1:31 p.m. at 1717 S. Disneyland Dr., which is near the hotel, after heavy smoke was seen billowing from the third floor of the tower, said Anaheim fire spokeswoman Maria Sabol.

The fire was out in about five minutes with the help of about 21 firefighters from Anaheim and Disneyland, Sabol said.
The fire broke out when a blue plastic sheet ignited after welders – using torches – were working on an outside elevator of the 12-story building, Sabol said. The tower – one of three at the hotel — is being remodeled and was vacant.
No injuries were reported.
A few fire vehicles were outside the hotel shortly after the fire, but the effects of the fire could not be seen from the outside.
Disney guests were unaffected by the fire, said Suzi Brown, a Disneyland Resort spokeswoman.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.
