  • Le grand incendie de Boston s'est déclaré dans le centre de la ville de Boston en 1872 et a provoqué de très lourdes pertes détruisant une partie du quartier financier de la ville. L'incendie a touché une superficie de 26 hectares et plus de 776 bâtiments pour une perte estimée à 73,5 millions de dollars américains (équivalent à 1,4 milliard de dollars en 2020). Au moins 30 personnes (dont 12 pompiers de Boston) ont péri au cours de la tragédie. L'incendie a débuté à 19 h 20 le 9 novembre 1872, dans le sous-sol d'un entrepôt commercial situé au 83-87 Summer Street et n'a été maitrisé que 12 heures plus tard. Un an plus tôt, Chicago a aussi été ravagé par un grand incendie. (fr)
