U.S. Pavilion

U.S. Pavilion:At night the fiberglass "Wall of Light" was lit up. The pavilion was eventually torn down to make way for the U.S. Open Tennis Center.

Behind the pavilion's colorful facade, monumental staircases and an escalator lead up to a huge inner court. An introductory film dramatizes the nation's immigrant origins. A large exhibit hall leads to a spectacular, multiscreen film-ride that transports the visitor through America's past to its future in the Space Age.
