The hoarding had come from the stalled student accommodation development, on the corner of Fraser Street and Norton Street.
Work on the building was stopped when the company behind the development went into administration.
Mount Group Student NatEx Ltd, which was building the £45m 500-unit NatEx student accommodation blocks made the announcement in October 2021.
Administrators at tax, audit and advisory firm Mazars said the administration followed increasing costs from Covid and supply chain issues caused by Brexit.
Merseyside fire and rescue service handed over the incident to site contractors and made Liverpool council aware.
A spokesperson for Merseyside fire and rescue service said: "This was fencing and support structures blocking the road due to storm damage on Fraser Street, on site security alerted us at 9.11am and one fire appliance was on scene shortly after.
"The Council have been made aware and on site contractors are dealing with this issue.
"Following an external handover, our crew left the scene at 9.36am."
