Manhattan Island map surveyed by Mexican American & Civil War veteran Egbert Viele 1865. Viele was author of a color city map, a "Sanitary & Topographical Map of the City and Island of New York," first published in 1865, and now called the "Viele Map", which shows his survey of the original streams, marshes and coastline of New York City, superimposed over the street grid. The map is still used by modern geotechnical engineers, structural engineers and planners to design the foundations of new buildings and structures in the city. The framed and matted map measures 70"x 26" and is in excellent condition, ready to hang. Please see photos for more details. New York
