Title

Entrance to Woodland Park, ca. 1905

Description

First created by Guy Phinney in 1889, Woodland Park was part of Phinney's personal estate. It included a small zoo, a bathhouse and bandstand. The city purchased the park in 1900 for $100,000.

The postcard may well be "ca. 1905", but the photo is earlier: the sign there dates from when Guy Phinney still privately owned the park.
