Ground Plan of the Building for the Great Industrial Exhibition, to be erected in Hyde-Park, 1850. Creator: Unknown

Ground Plan of the Building for the Great Industrial Exhibition, to be erected in Hyde-Park, [London], 1850. The plot of ground...is on the south side of Hyde-park, between the Kensington-road and that part of the park known as Rotten-row; and much nonsensical correspondence has lately been in some of the daily journals respecting the injury which will be done to this portion of the Park by the erection of the building, the enormous amount of traffic which will be hereabouts...and great complaints have been made that some of the trees must be removed. These objections are easily disposed of, for the plot of ground is the very best which could possibly have been selected for the purpose, from its contiguity to the high-road...[we] noticed that the only trees marked for destruction are some half-dozen small ones - the more venerable and larger trees being most religiously preserved...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850
