Manhattan in the 1880s: A very big map

Primary Map smallClicking on the map to the left will download a very large jpg of the original:  4,798 x 12,960 pixels or  28.9 MB.  I am posting it for those ocd types (like me) who want a full sized, detailed map of the area relevant to The Gilded Hour.

Note that there is a legend, as well as notes in various spots. If you do download it, you may find it easiest to look at in a browser window (most browsers will allow you to open an image file) at full size. There are both real or historical and fictional locations on the map.
