Cadastral Map- a map depicting land parcel boundaries.
This is a map of the District of Columbia from 1917 showing government buildings, all other buildings in the mall area, and public lands. From the map it is easy to tell how the early center of Washington D.C. was divided into a grid system, and then parceled out into smaller pieces. This map does not include all of the information that might be found on a cadastral map, though, such as portion and plan numbers and parish and county names and boundaries.
