Gran Incendi de Nova York

El Gran Incendi de Nova York de 1835 va ser un desastre que va destruir la Borsa de Nova York i la majoria dels edificis de l'extrem sud-est de Manhattan al voltant de Wall Street a la nit 16 al 17 de desembre de 1835.

La ciutat estava coberta per la neu i l'incendi va començar una tarda en un magatzem de cinc pisos al carrer Merchant n º 25 en la intersecció amb el carrer Pearl entre Hannover Square i Wall Street. El foc va ser alimentat pels vents huracanats que bufaven des del nord-oest cap al East River. Amb temperatures tan baixes com -27 °C i el riu Aquest congelat, els bombers van haver de tallar forats al gel per obtenir aigua, però, a aquesta temperatura, l'aigua es congelava a les mànegues i bombes. Els intents de volar edificis al seu pas van ser frustrats per la falta de pólvora a Manhattan. Els bombers que van arribar a ajudar des Filadèlfia van dir que van veure senyals de l'incendi des allà.
