Uncolored map of New York by French cartographer Jacques Nicolas Bellin (1703-1772). The title is "Ville de Manathe ou Nouvelle-Yorc" and includes description of the main buildings. This chart belongs to a collection called "Le Petit Atlas Maritime", probably the best compilation of plans of maritime towns and harbors of its time.
