Portland, Oregon, hosted this fair in 1905 to mark a century since Meriwether Lewis and William Clark reached the Pacific coast, and this bird's-eye view shows the entire grounds at once, from the main exhibit buildings to the walkways and landscaped lawns. Panoramas drawn from an aerial perspective were a popular way to convey the scale of turn-of-the-century expositions, which drew large crowds and left a lasting mark on the city. Studying the layout shows how the planners grouped buildings around open courts to create a sense of order and grandeur.
