Title: 1910 MAP OF THE CITY OF HOUSTON AND VICINITY Author: Jno. Stoner, Texas Map and Blueprinting Company Date/Location: 1910, Houston Condition: See description Inches: 20 1/2 x 18 5/8 Centimeters:  52.07 x 47.24 Product ID: 308363   Supremely Rare Map of Houston Part cadastral, part city map showing Houston in great detail.  Houston is seen as a crazy quilt of subdivisions laid out at multiple angles. The original city comprising a large part of the central business district (CBD) is of course on a southwest to northeast axis allowing maximum frontage to Buffalo Bayou. Other parts of the city adhere to the more common north-south grid, while some neighborhoods intersect at acute angles, bedeviling Houston drivers down to the present day. This detailed map shows railroad depots, including a round house just north of the CBD, industrial sites, streetcar lines, and dotted lines for Main and Fannin Street “Extensions”  just south of today’s museum district.
