In October of 1871, the Great Chicago Fire burned a path nearly four miles long through the heart of the City. The destruction was extensive, but it created an opportunity to rebuild Chicago as a modern city. When Chicago was chosen as the location for The World's Columbian Exposition to be held there was a surge of effort to beautify the city and improve its infrastructure in anticipation of hosting travelers from all over the world.
