From Richard Flint #6

6 – This is a fine view from about 1905 showing most of the grounds. In front, the fence runs along Railroad Ave; at upper left you can see a series of residential houses along Wordin Avenue, the western boundary of the winter quarters land. To the right you see the massive building for the paint shops but unseen further to the right is another long brick building housing animals and various repair shops that runs along Norman Ave, the eastern border for the show’s real estate. The principal buildings, from left, are the car shops which once was more forward and closer to Railroad Ave. though its overall length never really changed (more on this later). Next is a structure that appears to have been built in stages. The exact use of the forward parts (colored red brick) is not clear but the middle area housed a practice ring and behind it was the elephant house (shown non-red in the postcard). Seen behind the big paint shop on the far right is a building at right angles to others and housing the carpenter shop on the first floor with a harness room and a dining room on the second floor. Behind it, another long building, use unknown, completes the line of buildings. Unseen to the right is the final major structure stretching along Norman Ave. housing animals and various repair shops. Sharp-eyed viewers will have noted at front right a wagon lettered “Sells Enormous.”
