Update --
A Henderson business went up in flames today, causing traffic problems near the twin bridges.
A fire broke out at Songbird Entertainment around 10 Thursday morning.
It sits on Highway 41, just south of the twin bridges.
Fire crews had a difficult time containing the blaze.
The owner believes a space heater in the basements building may have sparked the blaze.
The building appears to be a total loss, but the owner says it will remain in business because most of its equipment was in vans outside the office.
