The neighborhood through time

Slide between atlas plates of the same few acres of Belvidere. The plates are lined up on lot lines and buildings that appear on both, so the stone house and its neighbors stay in place while the years change. More maps, from the 1790s to today, are being added.

Atlas plate of 1906, aligned on the Fairmount Street lot. The ring marks the stone house.
