"Map of part of the Murray-Hill Estate, Situated in the 12th Ward of the City of New York, to be sold by James Bleecker & Sons on Thursday 11th June 1835, at 12 o'clock, at the Merchant's Exchange" is a 1835 hand-drawn map by Prosper Desobry of a planned real estate development in Manhattan, New York City. This intricate map details the planned street layout of the Murray Hill district, including the numbered street grid and locations of blocks designated for sale. The map depicts the evolving landscape of New York City in the 1830s and provides a valuable glimpse into the ambitious urban planning of the time.
