CHICO

  Panoramic Map of Chico, California

This isometric, panoramic map of Chico turns the compass to the northeast in order to portray the city along its own natural lines, radiating out from downtown at center.

Available now at The Bookstore, Main Street, downtown Chico.

The first edition of this map was created a 3x5-foot mounted poster, of which two copies were sold from the Museum of Northern California Art as part of its "Map It Out" exhibition that summer.

This version was printed at a smaller size of 30x44 inches. It is currently available at The Bookstore, Main Street at First Street, downtown Chico.
