The International Exposition of 1876 was the first official world's fair held in the United States, staged in Philadelphia's Fairmount Park to mark the nation's centennial. Its centerpiece was Machinery Hall, a vast iron-and-glass building that housed the steam engines and industrial equipment on display, and the event drew millions of visitors over its six months. The exposition showcased new inventions and manufacturing from around the world, including the typewriter and the Corliss steam engine, and it helped introduce Americans to ideas about technology and progress that would shape the decades ahead.
