This photo shows a view of the Court of Honor from
the Peristyle Water Gate. At the end of the basin is the Administration
Building. To the right are the Manufactures, Electricity, and
Mines Buildings respectively from foreground to background. To
the left are the Agriculture and Machinery Buildings.
The Grand Basin is 1300 feet long and 300 feet wide. You could
fit eight football fields in a space of that size.
