The facility is the holding location for vehicles seized for reasons other than small traffic or parking infractions.

The NYPD website explains a "vehicle might be brought to the location following the arrest of the vehicle's operator, or if the vehicle is part of an investigation or has been seized for legal reasons."

The cause of the fire remained unknown and no injuries had been reported as of about 11:45 a.m., according to the FDNY and NYPD.

Police are also asking for public help and asking for photos or videos that could help them determine the cause.
