World's Fair
Scope and Contents
This small series includes material relating to City Park, the proposed Louisiana Science Center, and the Piazza d'Italia. More extensive files on the latter project will be found in the Morial general subject files, in the papers of Mayor Moon Landrieu, and in the records of the Office of Economic Development.
The sub-series dealing with the 1984 Louisiana World Exposition is only slightly more extensive. Additional City Archives sources of information on the Fair include other series within the Morial administration records as well as records of the New Orleans Fire Department, City Planning Commission, and City Council. See also the Louisiana Division's Louisiana World Exposition Collection.
