Detroit officials said the “World’s Largest Stove,” a metal-and-wood landmark at the Michigan State Fairgrounds, caught fire after an apparent lightning strike. The stove was destroyed, with only its frame and base remaining. The stove is believed to have been struck by lightning Saturday before firefighters were able to put out the flames. The stove, a 20-foot-tall Garland model kitchen range built by the Michigan Stove Co. in 1893, was moved to the fairgrounds in 1998.
