Smoke was still billowing at 7:30 p.m. from the Wilson Lawn and Landscape garage at 2500 Pfingsten Rd. in Northbrook, though the fire had been put out. 

No one was hurt in the large fire that the department responded to at 5:18 p.m. and took about an hour to put out, according to Northbrook Fire Department Battalion Chief Jim Richards, who was still on the scene as firefighters continued spraying the smoking structure. 

Richards said the source of the fire remains under investigation.
