520 | $aArchitect John Steinmann of Monticello, Wisconsin, created the original design for Wisconsin's iconic contribution to the 1964 New York World's Fair. The impressive pavilion building's rotunda featured displays that highlighted Wisconsin history, including universities; highways; conservation; natural resource development; recreation; the aeronautic industry; and the agricultural and dairy industries. Steinmann's innovative space age design worked well within the forward-looking aesthetic of the fair, and Pruden Steel Buildings in Evansville provided the materials for construction that ensured Wisconsin would not miss the opportunity to participate. Thirteen million people visited the Wisconsin Pavilion during the two years of the Fair and at the end of 1965, Central Wisconsin Broadcasting Inc. purchased the building parts and had the structure reconstructed alongside U.S. Highway 10 in Neillsville, Wisconsin. Today, the Wisconsin Pavilion is owned, operated, and maintained by the same family that owns WCCN FM/AM. | |
