Additional Details:
A half-mile elevated roadway, upon which visitors will ride in Ford cars around the exhibition building, out on a viaduct and up a spiralling incline, will feature the Ford Company exhibit at the World's Fair. Within the building Mr. Ford's idea - the growing interdependence of farm and factory - will find graphic expression in displays which will include sugar cane, soy beans and cotton among the featured subjects. Walter Darwin Teague is the designer of the exhibit, and the architect is Albert Kahn
