Watched the local polo team. |
Went to the 50th anniversary of the 1964 World's Fair. Observation towers left from World's Fair at Corona Park, Flushing, Queens, NY. |
What's left of the NY state pavilion. It once had a mosaic roof. Several groups are working toward securing fund to do some restoration work. |
The Geosphere. Really stunning. |
My ride. |
SO, hope you've been entertained while I enjoy my vacation. I'll be back writing and visiting in a week or so. |
Can people still go up in those observation towers?
ReplyDeleteNo, it's unsafe. The day we were there they were allowing us to wear hardhats and go inside the pavilion but not the towers. Groups are trying to secure funding/donations, and last I heard they were going to repair the towers although I don't know if they'll ever re-open to the public. They look very eerie, don't they?
DeleteYes, a lovely holiday! Beautiful photos! A bad stage at age 6!
