Title	Sermon in [i.e. Sermons From] Science Bldg. to right; S.E. corner Warren & Thomas Str.
Identifier	spl_wl_exp_00260
Description	Sermons from Science Building, Century 21 Exposition (Seattle World’s Fair). “True brick panels, without any backing and weighing up to a ton, were attached to steel H-Columns to provide the finish interior and exterior walls of the Sermons from Science Building (architects: Johnson, Nesland & Sibold; general contractor: Gwinn Construction Co.). The panels, up to 5x9 ft. each, are made of Inca ceramic brick with holes for the placement of reinforcing steel. Exterior sides for one portion of the structure were glazed and fired in a cobalt-blue finish. The bricks were laid at the manufacturer's Newcastle plant and installed by the brickmasons on the building site, where the 2,000-lb. panels were lifted by a special suction cup device.—Builders Brick Co., 3900 Ninth S., Seattle. (No. 3)” (An Architect’s Guidebook to the Seattle World’s Fair. Seattle, Pacific Builder and Engineer, April 1962, p. 46)
