Sanborn Maps

This resource allows the user to see South Dakota maps of cities as they were on certain dates. For example, I was able to view Sioux Falls city maps on July 1902, 1924 and many other dates. On the 1902 map, I was able to locate several familiar places such as Lowell Elementary Public School. This is an interesting site if one wants to see how a town grew or find where a city began an addition (like your grandmother's home).
