"Detroit: Evolution of a City is an interactive look at the growth, decline, and revival of the city of Detroit through historic and present-day pictures. To move back and forth between the old picture and the new, click and drag on the green bar in the center of the image. You can also click anywhere inside the image, and the slider will automatically move to that point. If you're interested in doing this yourself, there are two components in shooting pictures that match up with historic ones: Location and composition. Location can be determined by basic information provided by the picture, such as place and street names, signage, notable buildings nearby, and captions. Approximate locations can be further refined by studying aerial photography, detailed fire insurance maps, blueprints, publications, and Google Maps."
