Spectacular fire in Chicago, Jan 1990. 

7AM on a Sunday morning.I was out taking photos and drove towards the enormous pillar of smoke. There was no perimeter and people were walking all over. A few minutes later, most of the wall in the photo collapsed sending firefighters and rubberneckers like me running for our lives. Nobody got hurt. The building eventually burned to the ground.
