Chicago 1893, the World's Columbian Exposition.

Destroyed to cover up a Great Reset or Ancient Civilization? imgur.com/a/L4yLEIJ

Golden Goddess of the Grand Basin
The 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition, held in Chicago’s Jackson Park, offered visitors a dazzling array of unforgettable sights. Few received as much attention as the Court of Honor—the stunning “White City” of Beaux Arts exhibit halls and sculpture lining a Grand Basin. Daniel Chester French was hired for the job of designing and executing the golden Statue of the Republic, which would become an icon of the 1893 World’s Fair. Her unfortunate cremation only a few years later was recountedhere.
