If you haven't already done so, contact Kim Chen. If you don't know who she is, reply and I'll clue you in.

Even early Sanborn maps completely overlook this area and map around it for some reason.  Also, Broad Street before the Civil War did not go straight through but stopped at 28th Street and you went around the hill to get to the other side (by road)  - unrelated but a true trivia fact.
