Relive the history of the 1939-40 and 1964-65 World’s Fair that put Flushing Meadow Park on the map. Originally an ash dump, the controversial Robert Moses transformed this space in to a useable park and led the effort to bring about both of these famous events. Walk through the park and discuss the fairs and view structures that still exist from both of them.
