Overview of the New York World's Fair, 1964-1965. The Kodak Pavilion is in the center. At the upper right is the circular New York State Pavilion. At the left is the Tower of the Four Winds.
The Tower of the Four Winds was a kinetic sculpture by Disney imagineer Roland Crump. It marked the entrance to It's A Small World at the PepsiCola Pavilion. (Similarly themed poles and banners are found at Epcot's Innoventions Plaza today.)
The Kodak Pavilion with its Picture Tower and Moondeck was designed by Kahn & Jacobs. The Kodak exhibit featured The Searching Eye," a multi-image film. (The same scene became replicated multiple times in smaller-sized projected moving images. It was quite an effect!) Kodak emphasized family photo shoots on the Moondeck, but I like my photo of the sweep of the entire Googie structure.
The New York State Pavilion's Tent of Tomorrow and observation towers still stand in the park.
