Description
Up she goes! Mushrooming up where only weeds grew before Hollywood's baseball park is rapidly taking shape these days as scores of workmen rush it to completion for use in the near future by the Stars. Here the ground work of boxes is being completed, while the dotted line points to where the grandstand will rise behind the boxes, towering some 75 feet higher. The park is located on Beverly Boulevard near Fairfax, and adjoining the present Gilmore Stadium. Photo dated: March 14, 1939.
