The 5000 block of Angus Drive on Goad's 1912 fire insurance map, with 5025 marked
The 5000 block of Angus Drive, on the stretch it shares with the 4900 block, between West 33rd and West 35th Avenues, on Goad's fire insurance map of 1912; the map may print the street under an older name. The ring marks 5025, placed from the City's address point today (inferred). In 1912 the map draws nothing on the spot where 5025 is today: an empty lot, a parcel not yet cut into lots, or land the survey left blank. Georectified by the City of Vancouver (Open Government Licence – Vancouver).
