Just south of the Administration Building the Machinery Hall was like most of its neighbors a Classical fa?ade hiding a cavernous single exhibition space packed tightly with exhibits. Designed by the Boston firm Peabody & Stearns the 435500 square feet (40459.27 square meters) of floor space in the Machinery Hall were unsurprisingly filled with technological marvels of the time such as sewing machines and the world’s largest conveyor belt. The Hall also housed the 43 steam engines and 127 dynamos which provided electricity for the entire Fair. McKim Mead & White of New York designed the neighboring Agricultural Hall featured farm equipment and produce from around the world including such unusual items as a map of the United States made of pickles and a 22000 pound “Monster Cheese” from Canada.[10
