Philadelphia 1876 World's Fair - Centennial International Exposition

#tartarianarchitecture #oldworld The Centennial International Exhibition of 1876, the first official World's Fair to be held in the United States, was held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, from May 10 to November 10, 1876, to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia.
Nearly 10 million visitors attended the exposition, and 37 countries participated in it.
Almost immediately after the Centennial closed, most physical remains were removed, either taken elsewhere or broken down and sold for parts. Much of the statuary and many of the fountains remained, as did the Ohio State building and two small, brick buildings used as “comfort stations.”
Two buildings were intended to be permanent, but Horticultural Hall was destroyed by a hurricane in 1954. Memorial Hall, ceased to be an art museum in 1928 and in subsequent years served as a gymnasium, swimming pool, and police station.

In your infinite wisdom, tell us what You KNOW, not some regurgitated recent entertainment. Take the time, I’m all ears.

Just one of those buildings would take at least a minimum of three years to build today, and from the planning, foundation, material acquisition, manpower, time off due to harsh winters, the building process, milliling of materials, interior design, landscaping, etc., etc.. Theres no way the timeline we are given for the construction of these buildings in the world fairs are even close to accurate.

Hear ye, hear ye. In order to prevent mud from soiling all interiors. It has been decreed dry day ONLY entry will be inforced untill we can figure out a way to prevent the roads from being muddied. Any ideas how this might be achieved are most welcomed as it's a real pickle. 🤔

The display presentations and items in them appear to have no connection to the building space used to display. The noise levels inside the buildings would have been deafening.
