Since the Milwaukee tracks were south of the Minneapolis & St. Louis tracks, the station would be south of the tracks. So it looks like it would be the rectangle just east of Wooddale Avenue.

I couldn't resist including the grain elevator near the upper-right corner. That was torn down for Cityscape.
