Which city is shown here?

The rr station to the right is supposed to have been part of a home in Dexter, Ks, for many years.

The dashed lines around the station would appear to be covered walkways for passengers.

Of course, this is my hometown of Moline. The Palace Hotel is the clue that cannot be denied.  The possible covered walkway, if it ever existed, was not there in my memory.  I do remember brick paving in those areas.

Yes, this is Moline, Kansas, in 1916.
