1871 WEST SIDE MAP

West Side Map

The interesting thing about this map... (other than Walked named the streets after the States to make it easy and generic)...  is the Park.  He named it "Yuen Ming Yuen Park.  I believe he was referring to the world famous "Yuan-ming-yuan" in China. Translation: "The Garden of Perfect Brightness".  Walker would indeed do something like that because he was a world traveler.  Either he misspelled the Chinese name or the map company did I think.
