1884: Trenton in the 1880's

Through all the many years I have collected historic material on the city of Trenton, the one thing which was the most elusive was the common, ordinary map of Trenton and environs. I have had many Fitzgerald Trenton Directories over the years, but someone always removed the map in the front of the volume,.

I note that Liberty Street was
given that name on November 1, 1889
according to the Trenton Historic
website. It was known as Pond Run Road before that. Perhaps it was
called Liberty Street before it was
officially know as such.
As a man who grew up on Liberty Street (824) I enjoy all references to it or maps of it.
Thank you for posting this map:)
