The Great Seattle Fire is a fire that destroys the entire central business district of Seattle, Washington on June 6, 1889.

The conflagration lasts for less than a day, burning through the afternoon and into the night, and during the same summer as the Great Spokane Fire and the Great Ellensburg Fire.

Seattle will quickly rebuild using brick buildings that sit twenty feet (6.1 meters) above the original street level.

Its population will swell during reconstruction, becoming the largest city in the newly-admitted state of Washington.
