The towering Pinus strobus was a staple of the lumber industry long before the great Chicago fire, but the need for construction lumber after that fire was immense. The amount of timber felled and floated and shipped out to rebuild The Windy City involved a huge number of this species. West Michigan was virtually cleared of all old growth Eastern White Pine due to the Chicago fire and the building boom after WWII.<\/p>\n
