Toronto | Canada | 1915 | Vintage Map

€49,00

The historical city map "Toronto" shows the Canadian metropolis on the shores of Lake Ontario as it appeared around 1915. The map divides the city area into seven numbered wards, making the administrative division of that time clearly comprehensible.

Numerous districts can be identified, such as North Toronto with Bedford Park and Eglinton, the rural Fairbank, West Toronto, Bracondale, as well as the affluent Rosedale and Deer Park in the northeast. A dense network of electric streetcar lines runs through the city area, complemented by several railway lines, including the Canadian Pacific Railway and the Grand Trunk Railway, which point to Toronto's central importance as a transport hub.

Along the waterfront, the harbor, the Exhibition Grounds, the Stanley Barracks, and the islands with Hanlan's Point are recorded. In the city center, significant institutions such as the Parliament Building, Queen's Park, the university, and numerous cemeteries, including Mount Pleasant Cemetery, can be found. Humber Bay and Ashbridge's Bay with the then-planned industrial area are also marked.

This detailed map is perfect as a decorative wall hanging or as a gift for those interested in urban history, map collectors, and anyone with a special connection to Toronto.
