Note
This is a rare variant of Viele's New York City map. It is printed on thin paper and folded into the rear of a small booklet with an essay by Viele explaining the map and its construction and the topography of New York City. The map shows all the original water courses of Manhattan Island, with the street grid superimposed on top. Also, three different kinds of land are shown: Marsh, Made Land, and Meadow. Sewer lines are indicated. This map differs in the title from the more common version issued with the Report on the Sanitary Conditions in New York (see our 3723.000)/ In 1874 Viele reissued the map in larger format as the Topographical Atlas of the City of New York (see our copy).

(Covers to) State of New York. No. 49. In Senate, Feb. 3, 1859. Report of the Select Committee appointed to investigate the Health Department of the City of New York.
List No

Note
This map is an early version of the larger map that became Viele's 1865 "Topographical Map of the City of New York. Showing Original Water Courses and Made Land" (see our various copies). It only shows lower Manhattan and has less detail than the later expanded map, but it does show Viele's methodology and the beginnings of what would become his great historical drainage map of the city. It was published in a New York State Senate government document and was prepared by Viele to show before the Senate during his testimony on the sanitary conditions of the city.
