It was designed by landscape architect Gilmore D. Clarke for the 1964-1965 New York World's Fair.
It is a representation of the world. The Unisphere is a 12-story high, spherical stainless steel representation of the Earth. Located in Flushing Meadows - Corona Park in the borough of Queens, New York City, the Unisphere is one of the borough's most iconic and enduring symbols. Commissioned to celebrate the beginning of the space age, the Unisphere was conceived and constructed as the theme symbol of the 1964-1965 New York World's Fair. The globe is over 36 meters in diameter.
It appears to be the Unisphere, a sculpture sponsored by U. S. Steel Corp for the 1964 Worlds Fair in New York City. It stands in Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens. Tons of good pics of it appear on Flickr.
