SHANGRALA'S

PLACES THEN AND NOW!

      Marking the Unted States 250 Anniversary, we realize we are constantly evolving, and so is our country. Compared to the rest of the world, the United States is a pretty young country. It's only been around for 250 years, while some have been standing for over a thousand years. Because the nation is so young, it has transformed an incredible amount over the past two centuries. And the places that have changed the most drastically are the cities.
      Above is St. Elmo Colorado 1890 vs Now. Just down the street there are quite a few buildings standing. It's a mining ghost town but extremely well preserved thanks to a caretaker in the 1950's and 60s chasing vandals away. We found more then-versus-now photos of places in the United States. It's fascinating to examine how they may or may not have chanced over time.

   Here Are Some Of The Best Ones. Enjoy! :)
