1844 coastal map of New York City area

[NoWittyHandle]

Does anybody know where I can get an electronic version of this map? It was issued by some forerunner of the Coast Guard or the US Coast and Geodetic Survey. Thanks.

Found it. I did a Google search for 1844 maps of the coast of New York city. It was in the David Rumsey collection. Thanks for your suggestions.
