Beautiful, antique map of Brooklyn, New York and surrounding Kings County, Queens County, and New York County areas. This is an authentic 1967 edition, 1979 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.
See what New York looked like over 50 years ago. Lots of intricate details and geological contours. Map even has little squares for every house that existed at the time. The USGS cartographers were very thorough back then!
