Many of Norwood's streets and neighborhoods were not yet platted at the time this photo was taken. The large field in the center of the photo with oval track is the former Norwood Park, which was used for baseball games, outdoor theater, and traveling circuses. Norwood Park was later replaced by the General Motors Norwood Assembly Plant and today is the site of the Grande Central Station shopping center.

Many of Norwood's streets and neighborhoods were not yet platted at the time this photo was taken. The original North Norwood School on Marion Avenue (built 1891) is visible in the center of the photo. The large field with the oval track in the distance behind the school is the former Norwood Park, which was used for baseball games, outdoor theater, and traveling circuses.
