The rear of 221 S. Ludlow St., which is under renovation, was charred, and a wooden back door was damaged.
Fire officials said discarded smoking material appears to have started the fire in the dumpster, but that the fire was fed by propane from a propane tank next to it that was in use at the work site.
The fire remains under investigation.
