New York State Pavilion
Located in Queens, the New York State Pavilion was built in 1962 in honor of the 1964 New York World’s Fair. It was designed by Philip Johnson and Richard Foster and cost $14 million. It was eventually meant to be used again but never was, but it was used in films like Men in Black and Iron Man 2. It fell into disrepair, but New York City’s government decided to finally restore it.
Penn Hills Resort
The Penn Hills Resort, founded in 1944, came to life in the 1960s when Frances Paolillo helped turn it into a desirable ski resort and golf course that became a popular honeymoon resort featuring an ice rink, swimming pool, and streetlights from the 1964 World’s Fair. When Paolillo died in 2009, the resort shut down and fell into disrepair.
