Carte de la ville MacCoun 1909 ou plan de la ville coloniale de New York en 1730

Focused on the southern tip of Manhattan, the map depicts the region from the Hudson River to the East River and from Midtown to the Battery. The idea that the city could expand through obstacles instead of around them is also apparent, as MacCoun references that the swamp north of the city was granted to Anthony Rutgers, on the condition that he drain it.
