A 1912 map shows the ballpark across the street from the Rossmere Hotel. The park had a small grandstand behind home, linked with larger grandstand sections on both sides. A large bleacher section flanked the 3B grandstand; a much smaller bleacher section sat along the 1B line. The catcher faced east. Lancaster Catholic High School now occupies the site.
