3. Is that erected just for the Halloween season?

They do great work with nail guns these days.

5. Yeah. It's seasonal.

The empty block immediately to the east of Daley Plaza (Block 37 as it's called) is turned into a Winter Wonderland every Christmas shopping season. I swear, an entire Bavarian village is dismanted, imported here and erected in the heart of Chicago every year, including the inhabitants.

It's actually kinda cool. I get a lot of my shopping done there.

4. Pumpkin Plaza is back

I went to the opening of Pumpkin Plaza a few year's back with my son's class. The mayor of Chicago ceremoniously opened it and handed the 'keys' over to the 'mayor' of Pumpkin Plaza, a costumed member of the Midnight Circus, which performed daily while it was open.

I see they are setting up the Midnight Circus' infrastructure (see that high bar to the right) so it looks like they'll be back.
