THE TRYLON AND PERISPHERE
KEY BUILDING OF THE NEW YORK WORLD'S
FAIR 1939
The 200-foot Perisphere within which visitors view
from a revolving platform suspended in mid-air a drama-
tization of the World of Tomorrow. Clusters of foun-
tains screen the piers supporting the Sphere so that the
great ball appears to be poised on jets of water. The 700-
foot triangular Trylon at the left, a unique architectural
form, serves as a Fair beacon. Architects: Harrison and
Fouilhoux.
