Firefighters and specialized hazardous materials units responded to a commercial strip in northwest Atlanta early Wednesday morning after smoke was spotted rising from a building. 
Atlanta Fire Rescue Department units responded to the 1400 block of Marietta Blvd NW following reports of smoke coming from inside a commercial building. 
Because of potential chemical or environmental concerns, commanders requested a hazardous materials response to evaluate the scene while crews investigate the origin of the smoke. 
First responders reported no injuries. 
Officials urge the public to avoid the 1400 block of Marietta Blvd NW to keep surrounding roads clear for emergency vehicles. 
Authorities have not released what specific chemicals or materials triggered the hazmat response, nor have they identified the exact business affected. 
First responders have not announced how long the traffic advisory on Marietta Blvd NW will remain in place while crews secure the building.
