This wonderful print is a reproduction of Bowen & Company?s original lithograph of the ?Plan of Detroit.? Judge Augustus Woodward created a new plan to rebuild Detroit after the old French town was destroyed by fire in 1805. This print is Woodward?s unique plan for the city?s reconstruction using a triangular design for the center of the city. It was originally published in a volume of the American State Papers, Public Land Series. Historic Urban Plans reproduced the lithograph in 1969 from the original in the Cornell University Library, as stated at the bottom of the print. The print is mounted in a simple, black metal frame that brings the total measurements of the piece to 11? x 13.? This is truly an interesting piece of Detroit?s history that provides us with a glimpse of the beginnings of the booming industrial city. Don?t miss the opportunity to own this great, affordable print, or give it to the history buff in your family this holiday season!
