Great Chicago Fire Many people are unaware of the fact that at the turn of the 19th Century Chicago was the newest and fastest growing city in the world. The reason for this was due to the Great Chicago Fire of 1871 where hundreds of people were killed and the city demolished by fire. In a very similar manner as that of San Francisco in 1906 because of no water pipes. The Chicago fire happened at a crucial time in architectural history. It was at this time the invention of the elevator came into use and with it the ability to construct very tall office buildings and towers.
