The nearly 230,000 square foot General Motors Futurama building is a landmark for Fair visitors. Entrance to the huge white building is a ten story high canopy, constructed of 39 spars rising 110 feet along its face. Behind the canopy, the main portion of the 680 foot long building houses the exciting 1,700 foot Futurama ride. The building terminates in a dramatic domed pavilion, in which current General Motors cars and other products will be displayed. On top of the pavilion, rising the equivalent of eight stories above the ground, is a 40 foot wide sculptured indicator which revolves, flashing the time and temperature in large illuminated numerals. |
