  • Baist's Surveys of Denver - Plate 26 (Sunnyside - Globeville)

    Baist produced small edition atlases featuring the details of a city. Looking at a town piece by piece, these maps show street addresses, subdivisions, building footprints, the building materials used ("brick", "frame", "stone") as well as function (home, stable, greenhouse, church, etc.). While originally produced for Insurance underwriters, they were also employed by the Real Estate industry, but now they are used as indispensable resources for historians, geographers and others.

    This rare sheet for a portion of Denver spans from 41st and Broadway over to 52nd and Clay, which includes neighborhoods such as a early Sunnyside and Globeville, and notes some of the smelters active in the area, including Boston & Colorado and Argo.

    Condition is fair with some minor dampstaining and soiling toward the bottom of the image. Image size 32 x 23 (inches).
