Description
-
Ferry Field near State Street was transformed into the main center of Union Circus activities. Several large tents stand around the field, one housing what appears to be a large arena. Crowds of people wrap around the interior of the arena, while others watch as people attempt a towering slide. A small sign reading "5¢ Tickets" sits near the base of the slide.
