Primary Sources

Digital Sanborn Maps, 1867–1970
These fire insurance maps chart the development of over 12,000 US towns and cities and include large-scale plans of cities and towns. Maps were produced 1867 - 1970, and drawn at a scale of 50 feet to an inch, list street blocks and building numbers, and detail building outline, size and shape.
The Sanborn Map Company, founded in 1867, was the primary American publisher of fire insurance maps for nearly 100 years. These maps were created to assist fire insurance companies to assess risk associated with insuring a particular property.
