The stylized Tomorrow Land that we have today with all of the rides and attractions is very different than how it was in 1955. Tomorrow Land was mostly a collection of exhibits showing future technologies and educational facts. Cooperations sponsored these exhibits and also showed off what they could accomplish in the very near future.
The Monsanto House of the future was built in 1957 in the spot where Pixie Hollow now sits. It was a testament to modern engineering, made entirely of plastic. According to Disney lore, the demolition that was supposed to take a day ended up taking 2 weeks since the wrecking ball would only bounce off. The reinforced concrete foundation is still there and in now being used as planters.
