That was actually part of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair Exposition. Pabst removed it after the fair in Chicago and moved it Milwaukee after the fair ended and attached it to the Pabst Mansion. You will walk right through there at the beginning of the Pabst Mansion tour. It's been 3 or 4 years since I've been there and the plan a couple of years ago was to renovate the exposition addition because it was deteriorating and leaking.
