It's only a beginning, but visitors interested in the Fair Project can now take a self-guided tour.Starting on 39FairHQ, the first "Tour Guide Post" is at the corner of the NYC Building and the Administration Building. These "Tour Guide Posts" have a proximity sensor which displays part of the notecard contained in the prim. Touching the prim will reveal the notecard and afford the opportunity for the visitor to save it to their inventory. If so desired, the text can be copied and pasted into a program like Word, or even Notepad.
Each of these Tour Notecards has some information about the Fair, and instructions how to proceed to the next stop on the tour. The tour takes the following path: Administration building, Zone Walk, NYC Building, Belgium Pavilion, past NCR and over to the Trylon and Perisphere. After strolling down the Helicline the visitor can pick up a teleport to WF1 and the Westinghouse Pavilion.
Along the tour visitors can pick up Educational Notecards with information and references about the subject. There are also displays which can be touched for additional notecards.
There are a total of twelve "Self-Guided Tour Posts", twenty-four "Educational Stands", and many other sources of information.
The Tour is new and there are probably many corrections and changes that need to be made. I am hoping that those of you on Reaction Grid, will stop by and take the tour. Then contact me with corrections, changes, and suggestions to make it better. Of course, as the 1939 New York World's Fair Project grows, the tour will change. At some point, we hope to have several tours, possibly one for each Fair Zone.
We are still looking for photos, information, and people to help out, both in-world and in real life. Hope to see you on ReactionGrid. Sign up for FREE at www.ReactionGrid.com
