>>Many sites hosted at Seattle’s Fisher Plaza are offline amid widespread reports of a fire at the facility. The largest impact has been downtime at the payment portal Authorize.net, which has been offline for hours, meaning that its merchants have been unable to process credit card payments through their web sites.
...
An account on the NANOG mailing list reports that the incident triggered the sprinkler system in an electrical equipment room. As noted in the NANOG report, water damage could complicate recovery efforts.
This is the second major outage at Fisher Plaza in the past year. Last June many sites at the building were offline after an electrical event at the building. Fisher Plaza previously had a major outage in 2006 (more details here on that incident). The owner of the building, which also houses the operations of Seattle TV and radio stations, has been attemtpting to sell Fisher Plaza.
The incident is being discussed at Web Hosting Talk and on Twitter.
