Few pictures in this gallery look as far from a barroom as this one. The cross section shows a dolphin communication space, a research laboratory and a hotel stacked within a single structure. Drawings like this date to the late 1960s and early 1970s, when researchers such as John C. Lilly argued that dolphins might learn to communicate with people, and some proposed facilities where humans and marine mammals could work and live side by side. The layered section shows how public lodging, scientific work and animal habitat might share one building, reflecting the era's optimism about interspecies study. Its place on a board devoted to taverns and saloons is worth noting, since the drawing includes no bar or drinking room.
