  • Hundreds of civil rights activists organized a sit-in at the pavilion during the opening ceremony and were arrested. because of the underemployment of African Americans?
  • Tent of Tomorrow's decaying map Introduce the map here.
  • all of these plans were canceled due to the high cost of restoration. Did the proposals make it into the planning stage?

  • The feasibility study was completed in the late 1990s, while the rest of the pavilion continued to rot.[145] redundant that the rest of the pavilion degraded while the study was being completed. What were the conclusions?
    • I actually had another look at the source - they were still working on the study at the time. (Later sources don't explicitly mention this study, but they do mention several other proposals, such as the 2001 aviation-museum proposal that's mentioned in the article.

  • known during the World's Fair Block 46 as Block 46?
  • Several small planters were also placed around the map. In 2019 or originally?
  • Indiana's mural tricked some visitors into believing that the Theaterama was a restaurant, so the lights on his mural had to be turned off. could you clarify what this means?
  • The modern theater's entrance is through the "nebula" structure and this as well. Does it just mean a ring?

Just one point about plans/proposals left. I won't hold up the review and just pass it, if you can address it how you see fit when you have the time. Thanks for another easy review. Rollinginhisgrave (talk) 18:02, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
