^ Interesting-looking gondolas in the upper left of that last print.

The Eastern side of the fairgrounds are very much in the style of the Chicago Columbian City Beautiful, with Beaux Arts pavilions flanking an Olmstead-like naturalized lagoon. The Western side looks more conventional. Almost like two different fairgrounds.
