There were no reports of an explosion or fire, he said.
"One way or another, that portion of the building will be brought down at some point today," Jessop said.Fire crews are working with Toronto Hydro and Enbridge Gas to ensure hydro and gas are disconnected from the building in case it collapses without engineer controls, Jessop said.
