Fort Barrancas is represented in this diorama as it appears today. It would have been cool to see it as it appeared during the Civil War, or even when it was completed in 1847...but that would have added a great number of little guns and mules and barrels and dudes, each of which would be the perfect size for a child to wrench off of the diorama. Which would necessitate the whole thing being covered with plexiglass, which, as I have learned from much painful experience, makes it virtually impossible to get a picture that looks this good.
