pared, and will be published and sent to the members early during 
the year. 
NEW BUILDINGS AND INSTALLATIONS. 
The Glass Court, which is really an addition to the Bird House, 
was completed during the year, filled with small birds, and opened 
to the public early in October, 1906. 
The Small-Deer House, occupying the site of the old Antelope 
Range, west of the Antelope House, is nearly completed and in 
all probability will be occupied about May 1. 
Baird Court.—The western and northern boundary walls, bal- 
ustrades and approach steps to Baird Court have been entirely 
completed, and the sloping Italian Garden will be prepared and 
planted during the Spring. Contracts for the pavilions and gates 
at the entrance to the Concourse itself were awarded during the 
year. The work is now under way and will be completed early 
in the Spring. 
The Feed-Barn and enclosing fence have been completed and 
the work shops and storage yards are now entirely screened from 
view. 
At the Boston Road entrance, the retaining wall and plaza, the 
entrance pavilion, and all the walks connecting with the Antelope 
House and Buffalo Range have been completed, together with a 
large amount of planting. The Public Comfort Building on 
Boston Road was partly finished, but owing to an irregularity in 
the contract between the City and the contractor, work was sus- 
pended. The building, however, will be completed during 1907. 
The Boat House has been finished and will be ready for use 
early in the Spring. The upper floor of this building will be used 
for a restaurant, and will largely increase the receipts of the 
Privilege Account. A large amount of miscellaneous construc- 
tion work has been done, the details of which will be found in the 
report of the Director of the Park. 
PLANS FOR 1907. 
The most important building remaining to be constructed in 
the Park is the Elephant House. Plans for the building have 
been carefully studied during the year and are now in the hands 
of the Park Department, and a contract for the construction of 
this building will be awarded at an early date. 
Plans have been prepared for a zebra installation, to occupy
