Corn Palace in Sioux City

Corn Palace in Sioux City

Corn Palace, Sioux City Ia. 1891

This is a drawing of a picture I found of the Corn Palace that was in Sioux City Ia in 1891.

I'm hoping that it is accurate since the picture I had found was a bit blurry.

It stated that there was a balcony on top of the 200 foot tower for visitors to view the city and 3 surrounding states. With an archway to allow traffic to pass through.

These Palaces were built and torn down yearly during these years. Sioux City has not had a Corn Palace since, I believe, the very early 1900s.

My lines are not the best on this picture, but I hope that you enjoy it anyway.

***Note from Kerry:
Hi Patty, and welcome to allaboutdrawings.com! Your drawing is great - you must have spent ages doing this. All of the intricate lines are terrific.

Thanks for sending in your photo and introducing yourself, it's great to have you here.

A palace indeed

Wow! What a splendiferous building, and wonderful drawing. I would love to see that in person. Was it someone's home, or did it server some other purpose?
