A promotional plat map for a city that never "got off the ground" (or map). At the top of the plat for the city is a park-like reserve titled "Golden Spring Reserve" and there is a vignette of an Indian sitting next to the Golden Spring. Central Bluffs does not appear on any other maps of the period, except for a very small settlement called "Golden Spring P.O." which shows in the Nebraska State atlas of 1885 - apparently the city never happened and the hapless early lot buyers became Golden Springs. The promotion was probably based on the expectation of a major railroad crossing the Missouri from Iowa and heading west (shown as the Nebraska Central Railroad and the Lyons and Iowa Central Railroad on the inset map) right through the proposed town. This route shows briefly in the late 1850's maps, then disappears, another railroad promotion that did not happen. And so went the city of Central Bluffs. Nearby and closer to the Missouri, a Central City appears briefly on some maps of the period, then also disappears. It may be related to this development. Map is without color. |

With nine maps, most folding and large (Maui is 110x133) showing land uses, topography, ownership, etc. The maps are dated around 1900 and are very interesting and attractive. The text and the maps give a look at the early commercial development of the islands. Several of the maps date from the Hawaiian Government Survey, headed by W.D. Alexander, the Surveyor General. This survey predated the U.S. take over in 1899. The later maps are by the Hawaii Territory Survey, Walter E. Wall, Surveyor. On the title page is stamped "Private Property of M.M. O'Shaughnessy." He built the Hetch-Hetchy water system for San Francisco as chief city engineer and many other important public works. Earlier in his career, he worked in Hawaii as a consultant to the plantations for various improvements (see DAB). |
