Entitled "Entrance Union Park, Dubuque, Iowa," this image depicts The Promenade in its early years. Although this postcard was used in 1907, it depicts a scene prior to 1904 as there is a Miner's Hut left over from Stewart Park days. The electrical poles are crude. While there is no picnic pavilion to the right yet, the cement does look new. The Bandstand to the left is the original and looks newly built as well. As the Promenade curves to the left, there is a railing indicated that the path goes over the creek. Further back there is a little bridge where the path branches off.
