General Motors
Postcard courtesy of Will HIll

In keeping with the World’s Fair Theme of “Building the World of Tomorrow,” the General Motors exhibit presents a conception of future motor traffic regulation and super-highways. By means of a continuous escalator, visitors seated in comfortable moving chairs travel over the super-highways and into the “city of tomorrow.” The tour is climaxed by a full-size street intersection, showing the architecture, motor traffic and pedestrian facilities of the future. Norman Bel Geddes is the designer, and Albert Kahn, Inc. the architect.
