In 1978, Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, as it is now called, became the home of the [[United States Tennis Association]] and the [[U.S. Open (tennis)|US Open]] tennis tournament is played there annually. The former Singer Bowl, later renamed [[Louis Armstrong Stadium]], was the tournament's primary venue until the larger [[Arthur Ashe Stadium]] was built on the site of the former Federal Pavilion. Together the two make up the complex called the [[USTA National Tennis Center]].

The former New York City building is home to the [[Queens Museum of Art]] and continues to display the multi-million dollar model of the city of New York.  This historic structure also (as of [[2007]]) has an excellent display of memorabilia from the two Fairs.  The section where the early United Nations General Assembly met had now reverted back to its historic role as an [[ice skating]] rink.
