“We’re heartbroken to hit pause, even for a little while, but we’re committed to doing this the right way so we can come back stronger — and drier — than ever," the post continued.

As previously reported by News Center 7, the fire happened in an apartment at a high-rise building near S. Ludlow Street and E Fourth Street on June 12.

Dayton Fire District Chief Andrew Wiley said the building’s sprinkler system put out the flames.

“It does appear right now that the alarm was in test mode because they were working on the system. So we didn’t receive a smoke alarm like we normally would,” Dayton Fire District Chief Andrew Wiley said.

The fire and sprinkler system caused thousands of dollars worth of damage to two businesses in the building, according to a previous News Center 7 report.

Fire investigators estimated there was about $200,000 worth of damage to equipment at iHeart Radio.
