Explore the many remnants of the World’s Fairs in today's Flushing Meadows-Corona Park in this virtual talk with Untapped New York's Chief Experience Officer, Justin Rivers. You'll see the time capsules, Andy Warhol mosaics and more! Flushing Meadows-Corona Park has lived many lives from marshy tidal wetlands to an early 20th Century ash dump, to the site of not one, but two World’s Fairs. This Flushing Meadows tour explores the past, present, and future of this 900-acre park which was an obsession of the late “Master Builder,” Robert Moses. Join Justin as he leads you on a journey through Flushing Meadows’ many unnoticed treasures.
