SINGAPORE: A fire broke out in Golden Mile Tower, an office and shopping complex along Beach Road, on Saturday (Aug 31).
Photos and videos of the fire, which began to emerge online at around 1pm, showed thick, black smoke billowing from the upper floors of the side of the building facing Golden Mile Complex.
 

In one photo, more than a dozen vehicles, all appearing to be of the same make, are engulfed in flames. The vehicles appear to be in a car park on the upper floors of the building.
CNA has reached out to the Singapore Civil Defence Force for more information.

Golden Mile Tower was built in the 1970s and currently houses a mix of restaurants, offices and the indie cinema The Projector. The building is also a terminal for buses to Malaysia and Thailand. 
Adjacent to Golden Mile Tower is the 300-room Hotel Traveltine and next to that is Golden Mile Complex, which is currently undergoing construction and restoration work.
