interesting place, historical layer / disappeared object
The Traveler's Insurance pavilion presented the two-and-a-half billion year story of life on earth, beginning with the earliest cell and culminating in modern man's leap into space. Under the red dome that symbolized the Travelers umbrella of protection, were 13 dioramas using life-sized models, stage sets and sound and lighting to re-create the most significant eras and events.
