Description

This is the older (1910) version of Page 3 of the Summerside fire insurance maps. The updated map of this town section is shown on Summerside_p3_1917. This map shows the area from Church Street to the waterfront, between Central and Granville streets. The map shows numbered town blocks and the buildings situated on them, the street numbers of the buildings and their heights in storeys. Buildings are colour-coded according to construction materials and/or use. (See Page 1 of the Summerside maps for a key explaining the colours, as well as symbols, which are used to identify architectural features.) Labels on buildings indicate their use. Features on the map include a post office, the Summerside Electric Light Co., at least three (3) liveries, numerous stores, and a portion of the P.E.I. Railway. The map shows street widths measured in feet. It shows the locations of hydrants, indicated by blue circles. Bedeque Harbour is outlined in blue. The map has a line scale in feet and a compass with north arrow.
