Whoaaaaaaaaaaa how have I never seen this before!!!?!?!?!!!!!!1111 — dscosson • talk 11:20, 5 December 2009 (CST)
- I know, right! It's on display in the Historical Society's library, I did a Google search for the illustrator and found a digitized version straightaway. The numbers are a little blurry, but still! — admin • talk 11:30, 5 December 2009 (CST)
Numbers
Speaking of the blurry numbers, I'm going to need help finding some of these. Just a few examples: I'm pretty sure the big cylindrical tower on Palafox north of Lee Square was a water tower, i.e. #7 Water Works Stand Pipe, even though it looks like #5. Not sure what the building on Guillemard and DeSoto is... I'd guess either the Water Works Pumping Station (since that's where the later Water Works Building was built) or the Gas Works. But the one on Tarragona between Cervantes & Strong could be either one of those too. Any insight? — admin • talk 11:38, 6 December 2009 (CST)
- Yeah, that's definitely the Water Works Stand Pipe at Palafox and Cervantes. I am having trouble seeing some of these numbers. Is there a number around the structure at Guillemard and de Soto? I can't see one. I'd guess your guess is probably right though. The structure you're talking about on Tarragona between Cervantes and Strong is the little teeny thing on the NE corner of Cervantes and Tarragona? I'm not sure. — dscosson • talk 12:05, 6 December 2009 (CST)
