Centennial Hall, a 94,000-square-foot exhibition hall at Fair Park, the site of the 1936 Texas Centennial Exposition -- and the annual Texas State Fair each year since -- in Dallas.

Centennial Hall is actually the amalgam of different buildings constructed at different times. One stage of the structure, which people called the Exposition Building, dates to 1905. The structure's three substantial porticoes and its monumental statues reflect the "Texanic" style that architect George Dahl developed for many of the buildings constructed for the exposition. Designed by Jose Martin, the female figure out front represents the Republic of Texas. Original image from Carol M. Highsmith’s America, Library of Congress collection.
