Auckland Zoo 1959 - Aerial Photo

Aerial photo of Auckland Zoo in 1959, sourced from Auckland Council\'s GIS Viewer.

Does anyone know what the buildings/sheds at the bottom of the picture are?

Wasn't that area used as barracks for the US army in WWII? I wouldn't have thought they would have still been there in 1959 but maybe.

Thanks for uploading this btw, looks very cool.

No problem I might investigate further on that area of buildings.

These can be viewed at Auckland Council GIS Viewer under the 'historic aerial photos' feature. You can zoom in closer for an even clearer image, but it was too hard to merge them into one image because my monitor is to small.
