This is a pencil sketch plan, numbered No. 11, that lays out a group of buildings with handwritten notes in Japanese. The record does not name the specific street or establishment, so the plan's exact location and maker remain unclear. Hand-drawn plans like this were usually made to record how a block was arranged and what each structure was used for, rather than as finished artwork. Its place on a board of taverns and saloons suggests the annotations may identify drinking houses, so the Japanese labels are the best clues to what the buildings were.
