Zooming in on Echo Park: Early 1900s Los Angeles maps

Automobile Club of Southern California

It’s always interesting to find some historical pieces of Los Angeles on the big Internet, this one comes from Big Map Blog. It’s a 1915 road map of the entire Southern California area, commissioned by the Automobile Club of Southern California. And it’s a pretty big map – so we’ve zoomed in on the Echo Park area to show you our little area almost 100 years ago. Funny thing is, if you compare this map with a current-day Google map, it doesn’t look a whole lot different. But the landscape sure is: what was once a bunch of fields and open space now is one of the city’s most populated areas.

Another interesting map from the same blog – credited to Birdseye View Pub. Co.’s – of the Los Angeles area circa 1909. Incredible detail on this one – here’s the zoomed in version on Echo Park below:

Birdseye View Pub. Co.'s birdseye map of Los Angeles, California in 1909.

Both very, very large maps are made available for download on the Big Map Blog. See if you can find your house!

    male masturbation
    Its a perfectly normal part of the process of recovering from a break
    up to see simple things and remember how you felt. Its also
    normal to have these feelings brought up again. That is why it
    was important to separate yourself from him…
    If that’s how we feel, we should have the
    right to say it. And I would tell it to her face if she walked up.

    butt plugs The rubbery tip is flexible and rounded off nicely.
    Other great “pivot points” would be nipples, the anus (externally
    only it’s called the “little” secret touch for a reason, it’s too small for internal
    use!) and my partner liked it when I used it on the underside of his
    cockhead. I mean, unless you’re having really lovely, slow,
    sensual PIV sex.. butt plugs

    butt plugs I have a feeling that these stockings will get used a lot in our house, since they can be paired with a wide
    variety of lingerie. My only regret in purchasing
    them was that I couldn’t afford to get a nice teddy or something to pair
    them with then. I’m planning on remedying that, as
    soon as I’ve dropped those few sizes I’m striving
    for.. butt plugs

    dildos That every one of its 655 pages is tremendously engaging and astonishingly beautiful marks it as the best comic of the year. Right around the time Pinocchio accidentally incinerates Gepetto’s wife during an act of energetic nose sex, you’ll probably realize your mistake. An exuberant, take no prisoners act of folklore reclamation, Pinocchio drags the comfortable archetypes of the little wooden boy, his lovelorn father and the Blue Fairy into weird, explicit wonderlands of sex and violence worlds not that different, in fact, from the dark and dangerous traditions from which they were born, over 100 years ago dildos.
