The New York World's Fair was held in Queens in 1939. The most absolutely unique buildings at the Fair were the Trylon and Perisphere, the Theme Center. The Perisphere was a 200 ft. ball, the largest ever created by mankind. Inside the sphere the visitor viewed from a revolving platform suspended in mid-air, a dramatization of the World of Tomorrow. The 700-foot triangular Trylon at the left served as a beacon for the World's Fair.
