The map shows all of Central, East and South Boston, most of Charlestown, and the eastern tip of Cambridge. Near the lower left corner are identified the American League Baseball Grounds on Huntington Ave., backing on train tracks and the National League Baseball Grounds on Columbus Ave., both a couple of blocks southwest of Massachusetts Ave. Imprints show an original copyright of this map in 1883 by Tilly Haynes, with subsequent 1894, 1897, 1902 & 1903 copyrights by George Walker & Co.
