Digital Sanborn Maps 1867-1970

此页没有中文版本

Historical maps from the Sanborn fire insurance map company from 1867 to 1970 that show details of buildings (including construction materials, use of facilities, and name of owners), streets, lot lines, and neighborhood infrastructure like roads and water mains are included. Because the maps were published at different times, each one shows a snapshot of the neighborhood in a different historical era. Includes maps of hundreds of Oregon towns and cities. This online collection is in black and white only (the original Sanborn maps were printed in color), so some details from the original historical maps do not show.
