The Turkish Pavilion on Market Street was essentially modern although styled to conform with ancient Turkish architectural tradition. The entrance with its overhanging eaves lead tnto a patio on the right side of which was a Turkish Coffee House and bar where Turkish Specialties were served.

Visitors could purchase products of the Turkish government's monopolies such as cigarettes, wines and liquours.
