The image depicts a nighttime scene from what appears to be an exhibition or fairground, possibly the 1939 New York World's Fair. It is captured in black and white, emphasizing contrasts between light and shadow.

In the foreground, there are several architectural structures with illuminated features that catch the eye against the dark sky. One prominent structure resembles a large dome-like shape adorned with lights on its perimeter. Another notable feature includes what appears to be an open-top pavilion or observation area also lit up by internal lighting. The design of these buildings suggests modernist architecture, reflecting the era's advancements and aesthetic preferences.

Dominating the background is a striking tower reminiscent of a lightning rod, crowned with a bright circular light that could represent electricity—a nod to General Electric as one of the featured companies at this fairground. This structure stands out against the night sky due to its towering height and unique shape, which may serve both functional and symbolic purposes.

The surrounding environment is populated with trees and lampposts, softly illuminated by ambient lighting. A road or pathway runs through the scene, leading towards these attractions, suggesting accessibility for visitors during nighttime hours as well. The presence of motion-blurred lights in some areas hints at activity bey [...]

The image depicts a scene from the World's Fair at night, showcasing a large building with illuminated signage on top. The architecture is modern for its time, featuring clean lines and expansive open spaces that create an impression of grandeur.

In front of this structure stands another overhanging bridge or canopy-like feature with "UNITED" written in capital letters along the side, suggesting it could be part of a transportation system like a monorail station. The ground is paved, and there's some greenery visible on what appears to be an elevated platform.

The background includes dark skies indicative of nighttime lighting conditions, which enhances the brightness of artificial lights from both buildings. A tower-like structure can also be seen in the far distance behind the primary building, adding depth to the scene.

There are no people or moving objects present, giving a still and serene atmosphere to this captured moment at the World's Fair during its run on May 24th, possibly highlighting an aspect of industrial progress or technological advancement. The photograph is labeled with "Gottscho-Schleisner" in the source caption, indicating it might be from their collection focusing on architectural subjects like steel buildings and reflections associated with U.S. Steel company's presence at such fairs.

Overall, this black-and-white image captures a sense of futu [...]

The image captures the iconic United States Steel building at night, part of an exhibition during a World's Fair. The black and white photograph highlights the illuminated structure with its distinctive curved design, which reflects on a body of water in front of it.

In this scene, you see "United States Steel" prominently displayed across the top portion of the dome-like architecture, indicating that it was sponsored by U.S. Steel for their exhibition during an exposition event held around 1939. The reflection creates a symmetrical visual effect on the still water surface below, enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal.

The photograph is credited to Gottschalks-Schleisner with a reference number of "691e" and was part of negatives taken by this company for archival purposes or photography collections during that era. The size mentioned as 4x5 in suggests it's an enlarged negative used for printing large photographs, which could be indicative of the importance or scale of exhibitions at World's Fairs held back then.

Overall, this image offers a glimpse into past technological achievements and architectural designs from the time period when such events were prominent showcases for industrial progress.

And by the way, the U.S. government now owns 10% of #Intel, 15% of #MPMaterials, the only rare earth metals company in U.S., 10% of Lithium Americas and a "Golden Share" in #USSteel, which gives it veto power over a private company.

United States Steel (USSX) 16, a Baldwin S-12, was working near Loveridge Rd. at the Pittsburg, CA Plant in or about 1975. Pittsburg's steel mill first opened in 1910 as Columbia Steel, a 60-man foundry. This plant is now closed.

Where are the “small government” Rs at? I’m all for protecting the workers, the u ion, and keeping jobs in the US but having the government tell companies how to operate at this level seems borderline communist…which last I checked was un-American #USSteel

Kevin Breuninger reveals a surprising twist: unlike U.S. Steel and Intel, TikTok’s U.S. deal won’t grant the government a golden share. Instead, TikTok’s data and algorithm control will be American-led via a joint venture with Oracle overseeing security. Trump extends TikTok’s compliance deadline amid ongoing national security debates.

In 2009, #Republicans lost their ever-lovin minds over all the "Czars" #Obama appointed to his Administration.

They screamed "Czars were Russian dictators" and this was evidence #Obama was a #Communist."

Flash forward to 2017/25, T****'s love affair with #Putin, #Kim, and every communist #dictator on the planet as he seizes portions of #Intel & #USSteel. 🤦‍♂️
