Descrição:

By now, the fire has been burning for about 15-20 hours and has finally completely destroyed the business district of Chicago. This is where all of the banks, law firms, lumberyards, and stores were. This was an extremely vital part of Chicago but now it was all gone and burnt to the ground.
