| dc.description.abstract | The poultry building at the Oregon State Fairgrounds in Salem represents in physical form the significance of poultry agriculture in the early twentieth century. Constructed in 1921 in the Spanish Colonial Revival style, the poultry building was designed and constructed specifically as a poultry exhibition hall for use during the week-long State Fair. The poultry building reveals the region's identification with agriculture in an elegant and traditional way. The core evidence of this project has been a three-fold investigation: a socio-poultry farming history, an interpretive architectural history, and an analysis of the building as artifact. The elegant, classic design of the poultry building represents the apex of success of the poultry industry in the early 1920s. | en_US |
