LI Sanborn Maps
Didn't find my town so I looked at Rapid City since that is where I do most of my shopping. I chose the selection November 1915. I thought the map was very hard to navigate. I kept wanting to move it over with the cursor and that just changed the magnification. I was just getting frustrated and ready to quit when I finally recognized some streets and looked for the Elke's Theatre. It was there! As I looked through the maps I saw one for a hotel and it was interesting to see the layout of the building, with certain shops and services. It even listed where there was furniture and posts. Good to know if you are going into a fire and can't see.

I agree that Sanborn Maps is hard to navigate, but it does contain information not found elsewhere. Glad you found something of interest here and made those maps submit to you!
