In the year 1901, the city of Buffalo, New York hosted the Pan American Exposition.
A cornerstone of this 350 acre sized "Fair" was a tower which beamed lights throughout the entire fairgrounds.
At that time Nikola Tesla had invented a three-phase system of alternating current with wireless power transmission for distant transfer of electricity.
This allowed designers to light the exposition using power generated 25 miles (40 km) away at Niagara Falls.
