Mapping out the Expo

Tomorrow I am going downtown to visually capture the site of the Pan-American Exposition then and now. I'm hoping that this final project won't be too difficult to find in Buffalo---- I know that there is a monument citing where McKinley was shot, which would lead one to believe that that is where the Temple of Music once stood. Another building that survived the end of the six month expo was the New York Building, which today is the Buffalo and Erie County Historical Society. It's simply a breathtaking building--- based on the Parthenon when it was being designed. So, in anticipation for tomorrow, here's a map of the 1901 Expo just to get our feet wet in this project:



Can't wait until tomorrow! : )
