There's also a replica drawn in 1916 with better details and beautiful colors.
Fun fact: Wall Street receives its name because it was that wall you can see to the right (north) of the city.

Let me know in the comments any historical curiosities I should know about this map!

#OldMapWednesday In my recent vacation to Netherlands I learned that Manhattan used to be a Dutch colony known by the name of New Amsterdam 🤯(to no surprise for americans, I imagine). This is the earliest map, called the "The Castello Plan", by Jacques Cortelyou ~1660.

You wake up from 100 year sleep and run straight north to the Bird People city. Save them from their blight and run straight to Eldin. This is how your Sheikah Slate map looks like right now.

The only mistake you could make when drawing your own fantasy maps is never starting.
This is my first digital hand drawn map, and a traditional remake I did 2 years later.
Don't stop and keep drawing, the ONLY way is forward but you gotta walk the walk every day.
