Y Street is now Broadway & Riverside does not exist. Front Street may follow the route of Riverside. A 1911 map shows a park with a large, ramped grandstand, and a bleacher section down the RF line, separated from the field by a fence. The grandstand was 28 feet wide. It was linked to a 110-foot long bleacher section down the LF line. The catcher faced SSE. Sold for $60,000 in 1944. In 1952, the distance to center field was 452. The large grandstand was 30 feet high at the back. Bleacher sections ran to the wall. The park was destroyed by fire July 11, 1948, forcing the team to finish the season on the road. It was rebuilt for the 1949 season. Now it is the site of a supermarket.
