The building Pabst built for the 1893 World's Fair was built to match Frederick Pabst's Mansion, which was built in 1892. After the fair, it was added onto the house and is still there today. It's a beautiful structure. The Pabst family used it as somewhat of a greenhouse, if memory serves me.

The car in front is a 1933 DeSoto. Can't be many of those left around.
