Map of La Presa - 1887

Hyde Park is one of the most desirable neighborhoods of modern Austin. The legacy of its settlement and growth reminds one of the important role Hyde Park has played in the history of Austin.

An early promotional map of Hyde Park reveals Shipe's layout of the new neighborhood. Drawn by noted map maker Augustus Koch, who prepared "bird's eye" maps of many Texas cities including Austin, Cuero and Victoria, it depicts a grid pattern of tree-lined streets. The west side of the development was dominated by a large park in the area bounded by present-day Guadalupe, West 38th, Avenue D and West 43rd streets. A "Railway Car Barn" for the Austin Rapid Transit Railway Co., the city's streetcar line, was shown near the southwest corner of Avenue D and Third (now 40th) Street. Two separate man-made bodies of water are labeled Gem Lake and Crystal Fountain. Frequently mentioned among the amenities Hyde Park offered, the lakes were drained in the mid-1890s to provide additional land for residential use as part of the effort to develop Hyde Park Addition No. 2.

Find your favorite new place to work. <br><br> 
Reset was created out of our co-founders' mutual struggle to find a good place to work. We tried coffeeshops, we tried expensive coworking spaces and we tried staying at home - but none of those really worked. Spaces were either too crowded, too loud, too expensive or just plain boring. 
​<br><br>
During dinner at an especially stunning East Austin restaurant, we looked around and realized we had already found a beautiful workspace. Gorgeous windows, comfortable seats and all the space we would ever need - all sitting empty during the day when the restaurant wasn't open. 
​<br><br>
The rest of the story includes a lot of hustle, countless conversations with restaurant owners and user research. 
 <br><br>
In the end, Reset is a way for people to experience new spaces in their local communities and get their work down - without breaking the bank. 
 <br><br>
Our focus is and will always be on helping our members do their best work, and experience new spaces right in their neighborhood.

Godwin's map is perhaps the largest and most profusely illustrated of all pictorial maps of San Francisco, with comic characters depicting different aspects of the city, a cowboy getting bucked off a horse, a couple dancing an exaggerated Charleston, dozens of whimsical vignettes with explanation text, illustrating both the modern city of San Francisco and its early history, including 1906 San Francisco's Earthquake and Fire. The streets, parks, local churches, schools, and government buildings are drawn to show the visitor. Noted: "The City That Knows How" and "The Ideal Convention City." Includes San Francisco: population, industry, products and postal services, and lists of banks and theaters.

Map of Salem Village in 1692
By W.P. Upham, 1866

From Charles W. Upham's Salem Witchcraft, With an Account of Salem Village and a History of Opinions on Witchcraft and Kindred Spirits (1867).
This map shows the locations of major landmarks, farms, land grants, physical features, and the dwellings of prominent and important residents in Salem during 1692.

W.P. Upham, brother to author Charles, researched and drew the map. In his notes to the volume, Charles Upham included some details about how land grants were located and drawn, but is largely silent about how his brother located the dwellings of the major actors in the Salem narrative:

The map, based upon various local maps and the Coast-Survey chart, is the result of much personal exploration and perambulation on the ground. It may claim to be a very exact representation of many of the original grants and farms. The locality of these houses, mills, and bridges, in 1692, is given in some cases precisely, and in all with near approximation. The locations of then-existing roads have been obtained from the returns of laying-out committees, and other evidence in the records and files. The construction of the map, in all its details, is the result of the researches and labors of W. P. Upham.
