One of the more attractive atlas maps of New York to appear in the mid-19th century, this is a beautiful example of Samuel Augustus Mitchell's 1849 map of southern Manhattan. The map depicts southern Manhattan from 37th street (Kips Bay) south to Battery Park and Brooklyn from Williamsburg to Columbia St. Mitchell offers wonderful detail at the street level including references to parks, individual streets, piers, ferries, and important buildings. Color coded with red, green, and yellow pastels according to political divisions. An index of churches, hotels, markets, squares, public buildings etc. is included along the left and right borders. The whole is engraved and colored in Mitchell's distinctive style with green border work and vivid pastels.
This map was issued in the 1849 edition of the New Universal Atlas. It was the last edition of that atlas to be published by Mitchell prior to selling the plates and rights to the atlas to Thomas Cowperthwait in 1850.
