The very lengthy but full title of the map is
:''Borrador del nuevo proyecto para el arreglo de dos plazas en la Poblacion de Panzacola á los extremos oriental y occidental de la actual determinacion de la extension de cada una y la posicion y dimensiones de los Solares para fabricar el Templo y otros Edificios publicos''.
The plan was drawn after a Spanish decree mandated the renaming of plazas and streets within the town, as well the establishment of a new church and government buildings. Pintado's plan received the approval of the city council on [[December 7]], [[1813]].<ref>[http://www.loc.gov/rr/geogmap/luso/usflorida.html The Luso-Hispanic World in Maps (Library of Congress)]</ref>
The map itself is held in the collections of the [[Wikipedia:George A. Smathers Libraries|George A. Smathers Libraries]] of the [[Wikipedia:University of Florida|University of Florida]].
This is the result of a Spanish decree dated [[August 14]], [[1812]], which mandated that Plaza de Fernando 7<sup>o</sup> be renamed Plaza de la Constitución and Plaza de Sevilla be renamed Plaza de Fernando 7<sup>o</sup>.<ref>[http://www.loc.gov/rr/geogmap/luso/usflorida.html The Luso-Hispanic World in Maps (Library of Congress)]</ref>
