We now know that GoDCers love maps. They seriously love maps, because our most popular post ever was the 1851 map of Washington. So, let’s satisfy that hunger for more maps with this one from 1907.
The map below is the Baist real estate map covering the areas of Bloomingdale and LeDroit Park. Click on it so you can get much better details. It’s pretty amazing.
The map includes Big Bear Cafe, Rustik (looks like an empty lot) and Boundary Stone to name a few establishments that were there when we wrote this in 2012. The pink buildings are brick structures while the yellow are frame buildings.
Be careful, you might end up spending an hour analyzing this map.
