SLI back then. My great aunt graduated from there in the 20s and taught in Gonzales for decades.

(Likely)
More likely from an aeroplane.
There was an extremely comprehensive aerial survey of much of the YS in the 1920s so the technology was there.

Even main roads are hard to pick out in the first picture.
I was looking at Google Earth and thinking kids today have it better. There wasn't a Sonic walking distance from El Cid.

The Deke House was built in 1929, not sure if I see it there.

Anybody know if they’re still planning to demolish Middleton after they finish the new library on south stadium? It would be awesome to have a wide open quad type area where Middleton is now.

No baseball stadium? Burn it all down
Per my understanding football, baseball and basketball all used the same field at that time

They played basketball in the Gym Armory, and I seriously doubt baseball was ever played in Tiger Stadium.
