city MAPS

Map of of Princeton drawn by Jacob Riegel, Jr., Class of 1912, ca. 1932. Though depicting buildings as three dimensional, they are scaled for the two-dimensional map and accurately placed. The cartoons represent inside jokes for Princetonians, including workmen being perplexed about where the front of the McCosh infirmary is, a stream of students headed to the train station for weekend travel, Alexander Hamilton facing off against a British musketeer, and numerous squirrels, among others.

Riegel was known for maps in this style. He also drew similar depictions of various other locations.
