Officially Licensed NEW YORK WORLD'S FAIR GENERAL MOTORS BUILDING NEW YORK WORLD'S FAIR 1939 In keeping with the World's Fair theme of "Building the World of Tomorrow," the General Motors exhibit presents a conception of future motor traffic regulations and super-highways. By means of a continuous escalator, visitors seated in comfortable moving chairs travel over the super-highways and into the "city of tomorrow." The tour is climaxed by a full-size street intersection, showing the architecture, motor traffic and pedestrian facilities of the future. Norman Bel Geddes is designer of the building, and the architect is Albert Kahn
