The annotations on this Google Earth aerial view
were matched to the 1879 map of Waterville.
The position of the track could be to the left
of its present location. The extension of North Street
may have been planned prior to the agreements made with
landowners to build the track. The length of a mile track
is about 2160 feet -- the width 970 feet. These are measurements
for the track only --doesn't include land for grandstand,
paddocks, and other out buildings.
