The wrought iron Ferris Thompson Gateway, installed on Prospect Avenue in 1911, was recently restored by artisan ironworkers from Pennsylvania, according to a University release. The gateway once served as the southern entrance to University Field, home to Princeton athletics teams and the terminus of the P-rade. Today, it is part of the Prospect Avenue Historic District.
