Description:
The main entrance to the 1905 Lewis & Clark Centennial and American Pacific Exposition and Oriental Fair was here, at NW 26th & Upshur, which at the time was the northern edge of town. Trolleys, running on tracks built specifically to bring the 2,554,848 vistors to the Expo from downtown and Union Depot.
This photo is looking southeast towards the gates. I assume those are guards on top of the little buildings there. The picture is striking due to the mass of people and trolleys parked bumper to bumper to move them.
