Scott Avenue Culver 1924 Sanborn Fire Map  

Not all of Scott Avenue is represented by the Sanborn Maps of 1906 & 1914! Missing was what is the most important part of Scott & Toner Avenue - the area in and around the Vandalia Depot - the very "infamous" area called "One Block West of the Depot" in all the nortious ads of the 1880's. 1890's and early 1900's. I personally can't imagine why this area with its depot, hotels and restaurants was not detailed in these maps; the 1924 map is the first accounting of the area besides some on the plat maps of the previous times.

This cropped section of map takes from Main Street to Lakeview Street

this next on picks up on the West side of Lakeview Street and goes down to what is State Street.
