    Some great now and then ones from East London

    It is amazing how much its changed and I wonder how much it will change over the next hundred years, assuming there will be no Blitz.

    Yeah, You can pretty much think it must've been hard for anyone who was poor back then.

    Definately looked better Then!

    WTF with the bridge?

    Must be cheaper to whack in that piece of crap.

    Also love the way the vaqn is parked on double Red Lines :laugh:

    What happened to our City?

    No respect.

    Some incredible pictures on that link. Nothing like a bit of culture, especially when it revolves around places I've spent most of my life.

    Fascinating pictures. I love anything like this to be honest.

    I joined a facebook group not so long ago full of old pictures of my town. Very weird to see how it's all changed.

    What amazes me most, is how many incredible buildings have been lost over the years.

    For example, this Lloyds TSB building;

    is where this rather good looking building was;
