Show moreThis collection contains large-scale maps of Burlington, Vermont produced to give fire insurance companies and underwriters accurate information about insured properties. The fire insurance maps provide a remarkably detailed record of the city’s development in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The maps dating from 1885, 1894, 1900, 1906, 1912 and 1919 were produced by the Sanborn Company. The earliest set, from 1869, does not indicate a publisher, but it is very similar to other early Sanborn maps.
The 1869 maps show the commercial, industrial, and residential area from the Lake Champlain waterfront east to Church and Shelburne Streets and from Pearl Street on the north to Howard Street on the south. Coverage gradually expands to include the growing downtown, the University of Vermont and the manufacturing area at Winooski Falls to the east, and new residential and commercial areas to the north and south.
The colored 21 x 25 inch sheets show building footprints, construction methods and materials, size and number of floors, and uses. They also show streets, railroads, wharves and slips, property boundaries, street numbers, water systems and fire hydrants. Except for 1869, each map set includes an index sheet showing the mapped area and sheet numbers, a list of streets and addresses, a “specials index” of businesses and organizations, and a detailed key that lists the symbols used to indicate building features.
Later Burlington insurance maps (1926 to 1978) are available in UVM Special Collections - http://specialcollections.uvm.edu/.

Show moreThis collection contains large-scale maps of Essex Junction, Vermont produced by the Sanborn Company from 1894-1922 to give fire insurance companies and underwriters accurate information about insured properties. The fire insurance maps provide a detailed record of the village’s development in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
The village of Essex Junction was located at the intersection of major east-west and north-south roads and the junction of six railroads. The insurance maps show the residences, businesses, industries, public buildings, churches and rail yard in the village center. They also include industrial and power generation facilities located south of the village on the Winooski River.
The colored 21 x 25 inch sheets show building footprints, construction methods and materials, size and number of floors, and uses. They also indicate streets, railroads and trolley lines, property boundaries, street numbers, water systems and fire hydrants. Each map set includes a detailed key that lists the symbols used to indicate building features. The 1910 and 1922 sets include an index sheet showing the mapped area and sheet numbers, a list of streets and addresses, and a “specials index” of businesses and organizations.
1928 and 1962 insurance maps for Essex Junction and Essex Center are available in UVM Special Collections.
