Insurance on the property after the fire
The Tremont Temple faced extensive fire losses with building and contents insured at 107000 including 96000 for the structure and 9000 for the organ. Other insured items included furniture and stock values, with partial or no coverage noted for various tenants and businesses in Nos. 70 to 74, Whipple & Co. serving as annex to the Parker House.
Mystery Blazes Hit Tremont Temple Fire
The Tremont Temple fire that morning remains puzzling with the first flames seen arising from under the organ. The organ’s location away from the boiler rules out an overheated furnace as the initial cause. An engineer near the scene reports no nearby stoves or jets and offers no solid explanation, though overheated pipes within the building are considered the likeliest theory.
