Columbus Circle, where Broadway, Eighth Avenue and Central Park South meet at the southwest corner of the park, is the setting here, and the wide panoramic format lets the viewer take in the whole intersection at once. The most eye-catching detail is the Uneeda Biscuit sign, an advertisement for the National Biscuit Company's cracker that was a familiar fixture of the city's rooftops and streetscapes in the early twentieth century. Ads like this were part of the growing commercial life of Manhattan, when painted and electric signs crowded the skyline. The picture is worth studying for the way it records the street traffic, buildings and advertising of a busy corner that was already central to the city.
