Fire fighters are putting out a fire at a data centre in central Auckland.

They were called to the former EDS building at 55 Nelson Street just after 1pm.

Fire Service spokesperson Megan Ruru says there have been around five fire appliances at the scene.

She says no one has been injured and no one was in the building when fire crews arrived.

Hewlitt Packard now owns the building. However, a spokesman says he has been instructed not to talk to the media.
