Preliminary plans for Chicago Great World's Fair revealed

A three day architectural commission conference in Chicago outlined the Centennial Celebration concept. Led by Harvey Riley Corbett, the panel proposed canal networks, three speed moving sidewalks, building level escalators, artistic roofs, searchlight illumination, a vast open air amphitheater, and an expansive new art building to accompany the 1893 Art Institute legacy. The plan promises a grand exposition reflecting century progress with Island No. 1 hosting major features.
