From Richard Flint #7

7 – Finally, this 1913 color-coded insurance map (red for brick buildings, yellow for wooden) puts it all together with highly accurate scale drawings. We clearly see the layout of the tracks and far right is the previously unseen animal and repair shops building. In the upper right corner of the city block with the winter quarters is a red brick fire station and two wooden homes (shown in yellow). The smaller house was the residence of a carpenter whose son was an acrobat in the 1890s. While Walter Porter was on the road, his young wife worked as a servant and stayed with her in-laws. Circus performers populated the neighborhood, either owning their own home or renting a room for the winter season. Near the fire house and two homes but on the show’s land is an open area that will be seen, along with the intersecting street, in the following two images.
