Abandoned New York State Pavilion’s Observation Tower

New York State Pavilion’s observation tower, at flushing meadow park, has been abandoned for more than 50 years. The New York State Pavilion is a historic structure originally built for the 1964-65 World’s Fair in Flushing Meadows Corona Park, Queens. The structure was the shining star of Fair, charming millions of visitors who flocked to Queens for a two-year celebration that made it the center of the world.

The Pavilion closed shortly after the Fair, and in the 50 years since, no long-term use has been found for the ailing structure. Today,2022, this unique and impressive historic landmark offers an opportunity to once again serve as a vibrant public space in the heart of New York's most diverse borough.
