About this Map

Shows the National Mall as it appeared at that time, with only the Washington Monument, Dept. of Agriculture, and original Smithsonian building. The city is shown as extending only north to mainly Florida Ave. (labeled as "Boundary Street") but includes the neighborhoods of Georgetown, Columbia Heights, Mount Pleasant, and part of Adams Morgan. The map also includes an inset of Alexandria in the lower left corner.
