Montreal | Canada | 1915 | Vintage Map

€49,00

The historical city map "Montreal" shows the Canadian metropolis on the St. Lawrence River as it appeared around 1915. The map divides the city area into thirty-one numbered wards, whose names are listed in a separate legend – from Papineau and St. Louis to St. Denis.

Surrounding municipalities such as Westmount, Outremont, Verdun, and Notre-Dame-de-Grâce are included, as are rural areas in the north, such as the parishes of Sault-au-Récollet and Rivière des Prairies. Distinctive landmarks define the map's image: Mount Royal Park with the Mount Royal Cemetery and the Notre Dame des Neiges Cemetery, the College of Philosophy, McGill University, as well as the Victoria Bridge, which spans the river toward Montreal South and St. Lambert.

Along the river, St. Helen's Island with the Public Park, Île Ronde, and numerous port facilities and shipyards are recorded. A dense network of electric tram lines as well as several railway lines, including Canadian Pacific and Grand Trunk Railway, document the city's importance in terms of transport.

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 Montreal. Produced as a high-quality giclée print, it faithfully reproduces the fine details of the original.

Historical maps show traces of time and use, the intensity and nature of which vary depending on the map and its intended purpose. The print offered is a reproduction.
