A very detailed map made in about 1884, showing a "bird's eye" perspective of a small town "Cedar Key" that all but burned to the ground a few years later. The town was rebuilt, but not in this style of course. The detail on this map is wonderful, so many little details.
For example, on this zoomed-in clip, you can even see the smoke coming from the train running along the tracks to the dock. Kind of brings the picture to life. Although, I can't help but wonder why the smoke from the train is blowing in a different way than the smoke from the boats?
