Map of Alicante, by Alberto Martín (1918)

Map of the city of Alicante published in 1918 in Barcelona by Alberto Martín, with information provided and reviewed by the City Council. It is currently part of the Map Library of the National Geographic Institute.

In addition to the city's location at that time, the map shows the layout of the new urban plan, which included the new neighbourhoods of Ensanche de la Diputación and Benalúa. Multiple lines in red also show the route of the old tram, which operated between 1893 and 1910.
