Looking into the Past - History meets present day photos

Historical pictures laid on top of present day photos

There are lots of these pictures for the Looking Into the Past project. It's such an interesting way to see how things have changed over the years in a single glance. It's particularly interesting when there's a single building in the historical picture but in the present day photograph, there's an entire city built up around it.

Have you ever been to Chicago. In the older restaurants in the loop, they have old pictures of the city with horses and dandies in carriages in the same street where buses and blackberry using communters walk today.

I have been to Chicago, but apparently not in the area where I could've seen that. :(
