This is his work- the former American pavilion at Montreal's Expo 67:

.. from the era when countries such as the US and the USSR spent vast
sums to showcase their technology and prowess at world fairs.

The Soviet pavilion was a sick joke. They were extremely arrogant about
their superiority and blind to better stuff in other exhibits and local
stores. I had to wonder if the Soviet personnel were permitted to wander
around on their own or leave the island, lest they defect.

I learned to use chopsticks at the Japanese pavilion, saw the first small
Honda generator and had a truly horrible meal at the French restaurant.
