Original 1895 financial supplement map showing the layout of the Twin City Rapid Transit Company. This historic piece maps out the early, rapidly growing electric streetcar lines across Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota, during a foundational era of Midwestern urban transit consolidation under Thomas Lowry.
As an authentic plate from the premier financial journal of the Gilded Age, the Commercial and Financial Chronicle, this map provides a fascinating historical snapshot of the network\'s infrastructure as presented to Wall Street investors over 130 years ago.
