Part 2 - A rare, ORIGINAL blueprint poster-size map of the Forest Hill area as it was when plots of some of the priciest real estate in Toronto were being subdivided. The blueprint also shows the size of lots, such as 40 feet wide by 120 feet deep.

Size of map: This map has an odd shape, see first photo, and was pieced together. Part of bottom left was NOT cut off. Rather, the part on the right that juts out was glued on it, creating the odd shape. The rectangular dimensions measured from longest edges are as follows: Approx. 36.5 inches x 23 inches (90 cm x 58.5 cm)

Presumably, this map was also from the surveyor, John van Nostrand, whose name appears in the other blueprint map of Forest Hill listed. The streets shown, in alphabetical order, are: Arlington Avenue Avenue Road Bathurst Street Bude Street Burton Road Cherrywood Avenue Cheyne Avenue Claxton Blvd. (formerly Connaught Avenue) Deverall Avenue (formerly Reid Avenue) Dewbourne Avenue Durham Avenue Elton Avenue (formerly Howland Avenue) Everden Road Felix Avenue Forest Hill Road Glenayr Road (formerly Brunswick Avenue) Gloucester Grove (formerly Valley Avenue) Heathdale Road (formerly Hill Brow Avenue) Herling Avenue Hilltop Avenue Hilltop Road Hopewell Avenue Humewood Drive Lonsdale Road Lonsmount Drive (formerly Westmount Drive) Machie Avenue Macrae Avenue Maplewood Avenue (formerly High Street) Markdale Avenue Mason Avenue Mayfair Avenue Milbank Montclair Avenue (formerly Clairmount Road) Pellatt Avenue Pinewood Avenue Richview Avenue (formerly Albany Avenue) Rosebury Avenue Rosemary Lane Rowlatt Avenue Rushton Road Shallmar Blvd. Strathearn Strathy Sutherland Street Taber Avenue Vaughan Road Vesta Drive (formerly Kendal Avenue) Warick Avenue Wembley Road Whitmore Avenue Windley Avenue Winnett Avenue

Map size: approx. 36.5 inches x 23 inches (90 cm x 58.5 cm).

The full map is shown in the second photo. Other photos show details from the map. Condition: folds, pinholes, one small hole in centre. In fair, vintage condition. Blank en verso. This is an original blueprint map circa 1929, not a reproduction! Bananastrudel sells only originals.
