Historic Map - Buffalo, NY - 1902

div class="description">

Buffalo, Erie Co., N.Y.

Reproduction panorama view of Buffalo, New York, created and published by Landis & Alsop in 1902. Buffalo, located on the eastern shores of Lake Erie near the head of the Niagara River, was a small trading community, before the Erie Canal opened with Buffalo at its western terminus in 1825. This enabled Buffalo to grow and prosper and by 1902 it was a major port city and manufacturing center.

The map from 1902 shows railway routes and includes complete street guide.
