Origin of the cover art for Magnetic Fields' "House of Tomorrow"
November 25, 2017 5:49 PM Subscribe
A song from the Magnetic Fields' "House of Tomorrow" popped up on Pandora a half-hour ago, and I've been obsessively trying (and failing) to find the source for the album's cover art. Those are Venetian gondolas, but that doesn't look like Venice. Google doesn't seem willing to reveal the liner notes or anything else that would give me a clue. Help?
Best answer: (note that the building featured on the cover is not the main festival hall, but rather the restaurant pavilion off to the side.)

Best answer: Here's another view centering on what's gotta be the same building in the center of the cover. St Louis 1904!

Response by poster: Y'all rock. THANK YOU! I thought it may have been a world's fair but I had no idea how to start looking.
