This classically presented map is centered on Manhattan and extends to include the surrounding counties in New Jersey, the Hudson River valley up to White Plains, and part of Long Island beyond Hempstead. Good detail of roads and railroads in the region. This map is nearly identical to Burr's map of 1831.
