Around New York: Changes, The constant in our World.




I stumbled on this website thanks to a Facebook post. The tile of the post 

Photos of New York City storefronts taken 10 years apart show gentrification and decay [36 pictures] Gentrification is a process that is the opposite of decay and an unavoidable consequence of progress. Imagine if nothing had changed in the last thousand years. Monty Python would be going around with a cart yelling "Bring out Your Dead!" and we would all be illiterate. Oh wait, our education system is making most of us that.. But on a serious note. The site is worth a visit if you're a long time New Yorker or have been here at least ten years. If there is one constant in New York it's change..
