Here's a map showing L.V.F. Randolph's house in the green square, and I've tried to make a transparency of the neighborhood under the sepia map... this view shows North at the top, so the writing is on it's side.... 

Turning the map 90 degrees, with east at the top of the image, the details are easier to read a bit.

and here is an even older image illustrating Hotchkiss Machine Shop, a former Mill, on Farragut Road
