Le plan de droite présente la ville de Montréal jusqu'à ses limites (le quartier Sainte-Anne à l'ouest, le quartier Sainte-Marie à l'est et le Parc Mont-Royal au nord). Les quartiers sont délimités par des couleurs.

Deux encadrés apparaissent par ailleurs sur le document. L'encadré intitulé "County & railway map of the vicinity of Montreal : from Johnston's manuscript "Map of the Dominion of Canada"" présente les environs de l'île de Montréal et les chemins de fer existants tandis que celui intitulé "The town and fortification of Montreal, Ville Marie : from a plan published by Jeffreys in 1758" présente l'ancienne ville fortifiée de Montréal. En anglais. 1881-1 (ancienne cote) et 153.

What the image shows
A large coloured map of the Island and City of Montreal, shown as a wide folded sheet with a title cartouche reading 'Map of the Island and City of Montreal' near the top right. The main map covers the city's street grid with a compass rose, a large park at the upper edge, and the St. Lawrence River along the bottom, while an inset on the left shows the whole island with its surrounding waterways and smaller insets are placed beside it. Districts and areas are distinguished by pale washes of pink, green, yellow and blue, and the sheet has an aged, foxed paper look.Described automatically by a vision model; may contain mistakes.
