Title
City of New York.
Description
English: A beautiful 1895 large format map of New York City by Joseph Rudolph Bien. Depicts the borough of Mahattan, Queens, and the Bronx as far as Yonkers and Westchester. Features good detail of the streets, trains, and parks as well as ferry routes and piers. Bien’s Atlas of New York was issued as an elephant folio and there is consequently no centerfold. Prepared for inclusion in the 1895 edition of Joseph Bien’s Atlas of New York State. An important piece for collectors of New York City cartography.
