This map of Durham, North Carolina, created by the Department of Public Works, appears to have been modified between its initial publication in 1948 and 1951. The legend indicates that color annotations were introduced in 1951 which help the user distinguish between “highway system streets” (marked in black) and “streets conforming to the requirements of chapter 260 of the 1951 Session Laws (marked in red). There are three dates on this map: May 1948 which is crossed out, November 10, 1950, and July 1951. The map provides street names as well as an index to streets within the city of Durham, North Carolina a list of schools with identifying markers and other sites including parks, hotels, fire houses, government buildings and libraries.
