Map of Boston
A
multicolored map of the city and the surrounding area in the early
twentyth century. Published by Rand McNally & Company in 1909.
There has been dramatic growth to the region due to immigration from
all over Europe. Arriving to staff busy factories, immigrant families
settled in places like the largely Italian North End or the
predominantly Irish “Southy”.
Major
buildings, parks, cemeteries, docks, and streets are in detail. At the
bottom are two inset maps showing the environs of Boston and the
business portion of Boston. Guaranteed to be authentic and over one hundred years old.
