Gamecloud (http://www.gamecloud.com) has the details (http://www.gamecloud.com/article.php?article_id=3152).

According to 2K Games Jason Bergman's own Loonyboi web site (http://loonyboi.com/blog/), the office building of 2K Games in New York City was hit by a major fire Saturday night. While it's still too early to find out the specific damage, Bergman reports that the section where 2K Games executives have their offices was hit particularly badly. The fire was in the 2K Games, Global Star and Joystiq [sic] (Editor - Joytech) building but Rockstar Games and parent Take 2's corporate offices are in another location and were not affected.
What a nightmare. I hope no major damage has been done and that the valuables Jason mentions in his blog survived intact.

Joystiq has an actual office? I just figured it was run from their homes....

I believe it should have read Joytech, but I'll check on it...

Edit - Thanks for the spot. Fixed.

Damn it, I was going to post that. I would suggest criminal investigation to the source of the fire...

Actually I'm pretty sure they do have an office though most of them work from their homes. Remember they are technically owned by AOL and merely a branch off of Engadget.
