PORTLAND: One City Center pipes break, causing flooding in offices
Wednesday's frigid temperatures contributed to a series of broken pipes at One City Center in downtown Portland.
Heating system pipes in ceilings ruptured, causing flooding on some upper floors of the 13-story building.
The sixth floor, one of those used by the law firm Preti Flaherty, was among the hardest hit, with standing puddles and soaked rugs.
However, no files were damaged and work continued in offices there and at the firm's several other locations, said the firm's managing partner, Harold Pachios.
Deputy Fire Chief Larry Libby said firefighters were called to the building for the flooding about 10:15 a.m.
He said heat was shut down in each leaking heater unit, but it was to be restored after repairs later in the day.
