WPA funds used for 1938 renovation. A 1945 update of a 1926 map shows a grandstand behind home plate, but a football configuration for the bleachers, with large bleacher sections opposite one another along the 3B line and in RF. The catcher faced SE. The park is now used for football. The map doesn't compute this address.
