Fire crews arrived on the scene about 6:30 a.m. at E. 37th Street and Hiawatha Avenue and remained there for several hours until the blaze was brought under control, the Fire Department said.
Fire officials have yet to give a preliminary indication of how the fire started. No injuries were reported.
Firefighters initially concentrated their efforts in the building's lower level.
About an hour later, as additional personnel and equipment were summoned, firefighters turned their attention to flames detected at the top of the grain tower, fire officials said.
Crews needed "copious amount of water down several grain shoots/towers from upper level," read a Fire Department statement issued a little more than 90 minutes into the battle.
