Zf362. A close up shot of the Fort Mills 3 Million Gallon Rain Water Reservoir at Middleside on Corregidor; the other one is Topside. I really don’t know what happened to this reservoir. But to me it looks like scrapper work but I don’t know when or by whom it was done. One nice thing […]

Zf361. This is the area between the Fort Mills 3 Million Gallon Rain Water Reservoir, at left and the former Aviary Administration Residence building on Corregidor, at right and not on this image. That concrete walkway led to the huge Aviary cage.

Zf358. This is the rear of the Zf359. The Kwiecinski couple had a water tower standing here. In the woods, in back, was part of the Native San Isidro Village (Barrio).

Zf357

Zf357. A leftover building from the Aviary, it is located behind the former Aviary Administration Residence building. On the rise behind it and all around that rise were the native village San Isidro and one can find foundations today of those village houses there.

Zf366. This is a 2008 image of the railed pathway to the huge bird cage of the Corregidor Aviary on Corregidor. It started near the concrete pathway next to the former Fort Mills 3 Million Gallon Rain Water Reservoir at Middleside on Corregidor, shown in image Zf361.

The concrete foundation posts are still in place but the netting and the bird […]
