  • Date/Period: c1879-1899
  • Size: 10"x9"

    This hand-drawn map features Water Street in Washington, D.C. It is extremely rare and was displayed as part of an exhibit for a Supreme Court case called MORRIS v. UNITED STATES, which occurred between 1879 and 1899. The case involved property rights claims by numerous landowners regarding reclaimed land and dredging adjacent to the Potomac River, covering 600 acres west of the Washington Monument. This area included landmarks such as the Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, and Potomac Park. Despite the landowners' claims, the Supreme Court ruled against them in 1899. The map is in overall very good condition, measuring 10" x 9", and comes with guaranteed authenticity.
