A Different View of the Fair


Girls from the Marching Band

December 23, 2011: "A Different View of the Fair" was submitted by Mr. Doug Chapman or Sioux Falls, SD.

The photograph was take by his mother, Isabel Yeager.

From what I can tell, the Trylon and Perisphere is obvious, in the center in front of the Perisphere is the Gas Industries pavilion. To the far right is the RCA tower. Between the tower and the Gas building is the stature of "The Spirit of Electricty" on top of AT & T Pavilion.

 

I believe that in front of the Trylon is the back of the Home Building Center, and the houses in the foreground are the ones in the "Town of Tomorrow."

Let me hear what you think. Can you identify more of the buildings?
