PART OF MAP SHOWING BUILDING AND TRANSIT DEVELOPMENT 

 MANHATTAN— 1885 



It will be seen on referring to the Use District Map Section 8 that it provides a 

 large business district in the vicinity of Broadway where the 1914 Development 

 map shows that most of the business buildings are located, an unrestricted district 

 west of Amsterdam Avenue and south of 72nd Street where there is a considerable 

 warehouse and factory development, and residence districts west of Broadway north 

 of West 70th Street and east of Columbus Avenue north of 66th Street, where many 

 residences and apartment houses are located. 



The 1914 and 1885 Development maps when taken together indicate the great 

 increase in intensity of development of all kinds in the area during the last 29 years. 



Note — Scale and key are the same as for the map on the opposite page except that 

 no separate classification was made in 1885 of business on first floor; a store and 

 dwelling is classed under residence.
