The telescope enclosures are open, and all instruments except for the transit and patrols can be seen. The trees on the north and south-east of the site are regularly spaced. A car and four people can be seen near the entrance to the office building. Several large palms stand east of the Residence. The formal garden to the west of the Residence does not appear developed. A circular ground feature south-west of the garage is visible. Writing on back identifies several structures as "Residence / Office Building / ADH / 13 inch / 10 inch / 3" / 8" / transit / Patrols".
