Great Boston Fire Site November 9 to 11 of 1872 saw much of downtown Boston destroyed by a fire which started here and reached Washington Street, Liberty Square and the waterfront before being contained.  At its height, firefighters from five New England states fought the blaze. Damage was estimated at $75 million. A combination of wooden buildings, high winds, and a shortage of horses to pull the fire equipment all contributed to the destruction. Submitted by RainbowThyme
