Barbara Williams taken in 1957.

Is this on Third Street?
What is that in the background? Is it horse jump?

You are correct. That is a horse jump.
The end unit, (closest to Empire), where Barb lived was occupied by the Perras family who basically owned Third Street and rented the units out. (I think those ones are condo's today).
The Perras children, Pierre and Yvette, had horses and their father built them a corral in which they jumped them. I guess when we were kids they were the "rich" of the Park.
I think at one time they owned all the land from 3rd street to Regent between Empire and Murray. That whole area was just fields.
