Pictorial Map of Edison Institute Museum & Historical Greenfield Village, 1934

Summary

This 1934 map illustrated Greenfield Village's layout five years after the Edison Institute's dedication and one year after the village opened to the public. Many buildings had already been added, and streets had been named. The steamboat Suwanee was shown at the top center, but the circular Suwanee Lagoon would not be dredged until 1937.
