"R.A. Rowan and Co.'s Windsor Square," ca. 1921. The map is trimmed down to the southern portion of the 200-acre area is shown, bordered by Third Street on the north to Wilshire Boulevard on the south and from just west of Plymouth Avenue on the west to east of Irving Boulevard on the east. This map consists of lots arranged on straight, linear streets and was cut after the portion north of Third Street was sold and separately subdivided as New Windsor Square (see later maps in the accession). An area to the left that had included some text and contact information for the developer was also trimmed. There are stamps at the bottom reading "Windsor Square Investment Company" and "R.A. Rowan & Co." This edition shows that most lots were sold, except for some on the extremities at Wilshire and Third and showing a few more sold than in the map that is item .6. With original folds, minor creases and some edge wear, the general condition is fair.Lexicon
