Dated statements about this place

1915 — I remember as a boy, about three or four years old, riding the El train going to the Circus on the lake front. Downtown was very crowded and windy, very hot in the summer, cold in the winter. Cobblestone streets, chain driven trucks and large horses pulling freight wagons, going on the steam boats. Sunday rides on Lake Michigan. My James Hanish · source · 1891–1920
