We are offering a COLOR COPY of the Atlas Page Of Edgebrook neighborhood, including historical Caldwell Reserve & area South of it, as it was in 1894.
It is beautiful plat map, made for an atlas. It shows [now highly populated] area bounded by Bryn Mawr Ave. on South, Central Ave. on West, North Branch of Chicago River on North & Chicago-Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway on East. This Atlas Page was drafted when there were only two (2) Subdivisions in the area: Assessor's Division of L. 2 in Billy Caldwell’s Reserve North of the Indian Boundary Line, Ante-Fire; and Kay’s SUB, Ante-Fire as well. Also, please notice the size of the Lots - how from 13.50 acres it came down to 25 ft wide these days! For the age estimation we used this info: the next Subdivision in this area "Edgebrook SUB" [which was prepared by Morris L. Greeley & which we own as well] was recorded in February of 1895, thus, we believe that this Atlas Page was prepared BEFORE 1895. Totally unique historical piece.
As all other our maps & plats, this one has some surveyor's indexing markings & notes from various surveying projects, completed in the area.
The size appr. 15" x 15". To property date this map we referred to our extensive archive.
