CN Property Plan of Hanley Spur

It took me awhile, but I finally got around to getting these CN property plan images from March, 1945 printed. Book customer Jeffrey Smith kindly emailed me pdf images of the CN property plan back in December, 2022. They marinated in my email inbox, perhaps getting better with age, until I finally hustled them over to Staples on a USB a couple of weeks ago, then expectantly picking them up today!  Look what we hath wrought:

How the images looked in the pdf viewer (above) - awesome! I had a tough time picturing just how big they were. I knew they were detailed and sizeable. When I rolled in to Staples an the copy centre clerk told me they would print out 120 inches in length, quick math told me that's 10 feet long! And that's printing them at the maximum paper width of 36 inches! We compromised at 5 feet long on 18-inch paper. There are three images, but I found one of them to be largely superfluous, so here are the two largest printed images on my family-room floor, with a one-foot ruler in the image, and my two feet edited out:
