THE UNITED STATES STEEL BUILDING
NEW YORK WORLD'S FAIR, 1939
A striking architectural feature of this 66-foot high
stainless steel building is the use of the structural steel
members on the exterior as a basic element of design.
These members, weighing 350 tons and meeting 72 feet
above the ground, painted blue, conceal lights which are
directed against the polished dome at night. Visitors will
see a dramatic presentation of the world of tomorrow
which steel helped to build. Design was by Walter Dorwin
& Teague. Architects York and Sawyer.
