Expensive but, oh my, this sounds so lovely: this one is a map of Salem Sound that includes landscape and nautical details

If you like wooden topographic maps, I have a friend who will custom-make them for any desired geographical area (though states and countries and some national parks are his defaults). His Etsy shop is Elevated Woodworking.

Wow, and his maps are so affordable; would he be able to make a map of my neighborhood? I mean, just the streets around my house? It would be really nifty I had a way of visualizing my neighborhood.

Just in case it wasn't clear, I think I should clarify that the $12 price is for a small fridge magnet map (about five inches square). Larger is pricier, maxing out at $350 for the largest standard size (about two hundred inches square).

I'm sure he could do a map of the topography of your neighborhood, but his maps don't generally include any human-built structures like roads or buildings, just the natural slopes of the landscape. I could ask if that's something he's considering adding to his repertoire.
