It may have been a misunderstanding that lead to not having a civic monument in Washington Square park. The field notes are located in the records vault in Norwalk. In 1818 Sandusky was located in Huron county.fluffyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03956980771905783948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27226233.post-2148931213193868192008-03-11T10:40:00.000-04:002008-03-11T10:40:00.000-04:00There's also the example of 'paper roads' - which ...There's also the example of 'paper roads' - which in parts of NZ were shown on maps but were never actually built.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27226233.post-75578543272856979042008-03-08T19:03:00.000-05:002008-03-08T19:03:00.000-05:00This is a great artifact!

Plans for places that never were or as they never were are wonderful because they shed light on the mysteries of city development and of the changes in planning. This image's history reminds me of the many maps of places that never existed, and the trap streets on real maps that are meant to prevent the theft of a cartographers' work by using the false trap street to catch plagiarizers. This image, and what it represents, is great. I hope more related materials that tell it's story are found!laurientaylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14306126329103942478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27226233.post-65169102239131761002008-02-21T13:15:00.000-05:002008-02-21T13:15:00.000-05:00Sandusky didn't want to be like "everybody else." ...Sandusky didn't want to be like "everybody else."
