As enthusiasm mounted, planners envisioned a celebration unparalleled in size, scope and grandeur; they would create a "fair to end all fairs." - After a heated competition among cities vying to host the event, Chicago, with its thriving business community, expansive parkland and efficient railroad system, was selected as the site. With Congress' blessing, organizers began the mammoth tasks of financing, planning and building the World's Columbian Exposition in the spring of 1890 |
