Someone sent these to me via EMAIL. I figured I would peel them off the EMAIL and share. The Wall St one is interesting. From that view, not much has changed.

Great black and white photographs, all ten of them. Detroit was beautiful in its heydays during WW1. Lasted all through the 1970s and then the city deteriorated due to political corruption. The horse drawn dairy carts in 1927 DC was interesting. No horseless carriages yet? Thanks for sharing.

Fantastic old photos, thanks for sharing.
A fascinating look at the past. Thank you.
Very cool. I LOVE old pictures of how things used to be. Thanks for sharing them. Cheers.
Wonderful shots, Bobbee! That earthquake really devastated San Francisco!
What is really interesting to me is the almost total lack of any vegetation/greenery in any of these cityscapes.
