The 74th Regiment Armory (Presently, the Connecticut Street Armory)

One of the features of the Pan-American Exposition was the "Saengerbund," a series of concerts offered by the North American German Singing Society, a group comprised of 105 choruses from all over the country. The event was so big that it was hosted at the Connecticut St. Armory, known back then as The New 74th Regimental Armory, located at the corner of Connecticut and Niagara Streets. The armory had room for 10,000.
