@RJP43 @spadafour

Okay, so I'm going to link all of the images of Chicago and the image mapping site that I use so we have it all in one issue! I will have it up as soon as I can!

Here is a link for 19th century maps (Chris Winters): https://www.lib.uchicago.edu/e/collections/maps/ Here's a good one, I'm looking at others as we speak.

Also, Chicago Public Library's Digital Archive... And...the New York Public Library Digital Collections

Okay, so I'm trying to see where I can find some images of the specific places Nelson visited. There is a blog of old postcards from Chicago..I know, a blog..but it's images! Here it is!We can just see what's useful here and see if we can use the images?

@RJP43 @spadafour This is all just copied from the ILiADS issue, but it's the information that's important, right??

Here is the site/online generator I use for the image mapping on Dickinson.

@nlottig94 I think I have settled on the map that is live on the site; however, we might decide to do a secondary map that is linked on that page for the companies that are outside of that main district. So be good if we keep these other map images on the back burner till we plan that out. For now, we want to get that main map working.

@RJP43 Got it! I'll see what I can play around with!!!

This is a sample of how image mapping works on Dickinson.
