Club Spire in the 1700 block of Main Street was filled beyond capacity, according to the Houston Fire Marshal’s office. Fire Chief Samuel Pena said the club was given the option to re-open within capacity guidelines, but management decided to close for the night. “If there was an emergency, a fire or something that would have occurred inside, we would have had a massive loss of life because the means of entry,” Pena said. “The exits were blocked.” The venue was hosting an event called “The Black Affair” that featured artists Trey Songz and Fabolous, which was a draw for people who traveled from out of town, only to be turned away.
