Map of Part of New Westminster District B.C.

Drawn at the Office of Lands & Works in Victoria B.C. and Lithographed by Britton & Rey in San Francisco, this map shows the land divided into numbered plots starting at the Gulf of Georgia, up from Boundary Bay and Semiahmoo Bay, along the Fraser River to Pitt River and Barnston Island, and around the Burrard Inlet and Port Moody. There are notes on describing the land cover in different areas along with a reference list noting which which lands are to be sold by auction, which are reserves, the roads and trails, and lines under survey. Named places and features include Sea Island, False Creek, Hastings, Burnaby Lake, New Westminster City, Annagis Island, Douglas Island, and the Coquitlam River among many others.
