The Sanborn map collection consists of a uniform series of large-scale maps,
dating from 1867 to 1961. These maps show the commercial, industrial, and
residential sections of some twelve thousand cities with populations of more
than 1000 people in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The maps were
designed to assist fire insurance agents in determining the degree of hazard
associated with a particular property and therefore show the size, shape,
purpose and frequently the names of prominent businesses. The maps also
indicate widths and names of streets, property boundaries, and house and block
numbers. Sanborn maps are thus an unrivaled source of information about the
historical use of buildings in American cities.
