Aerial view of sports stadium, c. 1935

Aerial view of a sports stadium, possibly setup for a boxing match with what could be a boxing ring in the center.

This temporary wooden stadium was used for Miami sporting events before Roddey Burdine Stadium was built in 1937. Partial wing of the plane from which the photo was taken, also in view.
