Street List

If no map shows up when you choose a map, the map may not cover that region, so try another map. A little buggy yet to say the least. To compare contemporary a map to an old map, the Overlays have to be toggled on and off.

Between ~1902 and ~1909, Arnold St became W 2nd St, Crown Hill Ave and W 3rd St
