Every fourth dimension I brand a skilful map I before long discovery out that mortal has done it better. Recently I've spent a lot of fourth dimension creating vintage map browsers amongst the Leaflet mapping library. I used the San Francisco Vintage Maps.
Well it turns out that Vestiges of New York has created a meliorate collection of New York vintage maps, using vintage maps from both the NYPL in addition to the David Rumsey collection of historical maps. Their NYC Time Machine is really like to my map, except it has far to a greater extent than vintage maps of New York maps for y'all to browse through.
The NYC Time Machine includes 27 vintage maps of New York, ranging inwards appointment from 1660 to 1924. The map includes a nifty selection to chop-chop switch betwixt your chosen vintage map in addition to a modern map, allowing y'all to compare the vintage map to the modern streets of New York.
