Up for sale is a great, large, antique map of a small set of blocks in N.W. DC.  This map has property specific detail of the area between Q Street and T Street and stretches from Florida Avenue to19th Street in the Dupont Circle area.  The current Dupont Circle Metro Station is now located at the bottom right hand corner (Area 111) between Connecticut Avenue and 19th Street.  At the corner of Q & 21st Street (bottom right corner of Area 66), we can now find the Embassy of Morocco. This map measures approximately 28 1/2 x 22 1/2 inches, including the border area.  Property specific detail.  Map is in color. VERY RARE .   This map is from the Real Estate Plat-Book of Washington, District of Columbia.  Vol. 1.  "Comprising the entire North-West Section from the Original Plats of Squares & Subdivisions and Additions upon record in the office of the Surveyor of the City of Washington". Constructed under the direction of and published in 1892 by Griffith M. Hopkins, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Maps this early and showing this much detail of Washington D.C. are VERY SCARCE .  The map has fantastic coloring to it.  Lots of color coding to represent various attributes (white/stone building, pink/brick building, yellow/frame building, if it looks like an envelope/a stable or shed, and black & white dotted/green house etc.. ).   Map in generally good condition (not perfect but pretty nice condition).  Browning and some small creases and chips at edges.  Map is blank on the reverse side.  There is a crease up the middle where it was originally bound. The map has some small tears and chips around the edges.  A brown square stain can be found on the top right edge and the top left edge of the map, caused by the original binding.  There are a few pencil marks left by a previous owner.  There are some creases in the paper, but they do not affect the map, as well as some other stains here and there.   Some other dings here and there.   This map is a great piece of Washington, D.C. history!  It will look very nice when framed.    Please note that while I have included a picture of the Title Page of the Plat-Book this map was taken from, it is NOT included in the sale, as it is a reference piece to determine authenticity for the other maps.  I would be happy to include a copy if requested. Please see my store for other great items.  Inventory R-20
