ABOUT THE Washington DC NOW TOTE BAG
The tote bag shows Washington DC as it is today overlaying the 1790 L’Enfant Plan with the current GIS Map. Most of the landfill resulted from the streams and swamps along the Potomac that were filled in which are shown in grey.
Washingtonians carry around a lot of stuff: lunch, laptops, reading material, umbrellas, extra clothing, shoes, and anything that they may have purchased no matter what the weather. When they leave home in the morning, they don’t frequently return until dinnertime or even bedtime. Consequently, they need a tote bag which is both spacious and will transition well from day into night. This is a really rugged tote bag reinforced with vegan leather on the bottom for the straps.
ABOUT THE Washington DC MAP
The map is a print of the iconic historical maps that have defined this city. Planned by Pierre L’Enfant in 1790. Reid, Wayland, and Smith’s 1795 Plan of the City of Washington in the Territory of Columbia shows the initial construction. The next topographic map was drawn in 1861 by A. Boschke and showed Washington as it looked before the Civil War. By 1915, the USGS map of the city shows that most of the downtown had been built out. The last is the current 2026 GIS data map. Illustrated in shades of blue which shows the original streams, swamps, and riverbank along the Potomac that were filled in to create the land.
