Posted By: <b>Rhys</b><p>It looks a lot like Chicago's West Side Grounds. If I can dig up some better pictures I will let you know but from the photos I have, it looks like a match.<br /><br />Rhys

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>I was thinking West Side Grounds too Rhys, but I just wasn't sure since this came out of a photo album of New England photos and I don't recognize any Chicago landmarks in any of the other photos.<br /><br />I am certain this is not the old Polo Grounds...the second deck is too short and has a flat roof.

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>Thanks guys. That photo of Eppa Rixey locks it up. I would guess this photo is right around 1913-14.
