Description
This view is one looking west along The Zone. or amusement street. About half of its entire length is shown in the picture, as there is a slight curve to the left about midway. As shown in the picture, visitors throng this thoroughfare to such an extent that on many days it is a seething, surging mass of humanity, all bent on having a good time. On both sides of the way, continuously for 2000 feet, there is a succession of attractive amusement concessions. The entire Zone represents an outlay of more than $10,000,000 an employs in its operation more than 7,000 people. While being much more elaborate in the preparation of the shows than at other previous Expositions, it is also more refined, the selections having been made not only with a view to their novelty but also their educational value.
