Flash Forward

Special Buildings

The Louisiana Purchase Exposition today features exhibits by industries, private organizations, theater troupes and music schools. Some of the buildings were spared, but still exist today. For example, The Palace of Fine Art, the building currently houses the St. Louis Museum. Other surviving structures include the Brookings Hall of Washington University, a huge bird cage at the St. Louis Zoo, and mansions located on the northern border of Forest Park. The Louisiana Purchase Exposition still retains its aura and fascination among todays collectors and historians. The remains of the demolished buildings and structures of the fair are studied by archaeologists. Many of the items originally sold during the fair are now traded as antiques. Those collectibles serve as reminder of the worlds fair.
