1. The Wallenda Troupe Marker
The Wallenda Troupe headed by the great Karl Wallenda, presented the most thrilling of all highwire acts – a human pyramid of seven performers balanced on a slender cable 40 feet in the air. This and other spectacular feats by the troupe have never been duplicated.
Erected by St. Armands Circle Association Inc. and the Circus Ring of Fame Foundation.
