:Maybe it's the building on the south side of Garden, with the smoke stack in rear? <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">&mdash;&nbsp;'''''[[User:Admin|admin]]'''''&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;'''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]'''''&nbsp;</span> 13:11, 6 December 2009 (CST)
::Maybe. The source of the 30 East Garden Street address is the ad depicted on our [[J. M. Hilliard Carriage Company]] article. The even-numbered address indicates a building on the north side of Garden. For instance, Reynalds Music House [http://www.reynaldsmusichouse.com/] is 36 East Garden. 30 East Garden would be in the middle of the Jefferson Street extension. Of course, that ad with that address is from 1897, it's possible it moved between 1896 and 1897 but probably not. Alternately, it's possible that the 30 East Garden address from the ad was simply an office and the actual factory was elsewhere. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">—&nbsp;'''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]'''&nbsp;</span> 13:19, 6 December 2009 (CST)
:::[[Image:Koch map-possible32-highlighted.png|thumb|right|Possible #32?]]OK. I believe you can make out a FAINT "32" on a building on the north side of Garden in that block. See the image at right. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">—&nbsp;'''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]'''&nbsp;</span> 14:39, 6 December 2009 (CST)
<nowiki>#</nowiki>57 is marked on Main Street about an inch to the right of #58. It refers to the structure on the NE corner of Main and de Villiers. I've seen the hospital marked in that position on a Sanborn map. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">—&nbsp;'''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]'''&nbsp;</span> 12:16, 6 December 2009 (CST)
:I had thought that was #45, thinking it was the [[L&N Marine Terminal Building]], but the article says that building wasn't built for another 8 years. Do you see another 45? <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">&mdash;&nbsp;'''''[[User:Admin|admin]]'''''&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;'''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]'''''&nbsp;</span> 13:11, 6 December 2009 (CST)
::I think it's 46, but no, I can't find another 45 offhand. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">—&nbsp;'''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]'''&nbsp;</span> 14:28, 6 December 2009 (CST)
:::[[Image:Koch map-44and45-highlighted.png|thumb|right|45 and 46?]]Strike that, I believe I've found 44 and 45.

==Out of order==
Any particular reason some of the numbers are out of order, i.e. 43 is followed by 52? <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">—&nbsp;'''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]'''&nbsp;</span> 14:28, 6 December 2009 (CST)
