"Evening Post" Photo. This pictures gives a good idea of the position of the city aerodrome, which will cost some £17,000 for putting in order. It is difficult to show the whole extent of the 110 acres without dwarfing the distance, and so there is a considerable portion of the field on the left-hand side of the picture, adjoining the concrete sewer, along the side of the Miramar Golf Links, which has not been included. Flanked on one side by Broadway, the main thoroughfare to Seatoun, and on the other by the esplanade which runs along the Lyall Bay beach, the field tapers off towards the houses in the distance. Near the right of the picture may be seen the old hillock of rotten rock, now all but demolished, which has been a landmark for years. There is space on the right of the picture to increase tho aerodrome by 30 acres if necessary. Further details are stated in an accompanying article.
