Hope I got the now shot lined up right??
http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b3...psa398bdb8.jpg https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-v...2520AM.bmp.jpg The building at right in light brown with white window framing appears to line up with the white building in the old shot, see how the windows down the side alleyway seem to match Google Maps |
:previous:
I'd say you got it, Joe. I hadn't looked closely at the windows of the big building above the parking meter in the old shot to see that they appear the same as the ones in the modernized version today. |
Looks to be pretty close, maybe within a car length. I think the shape of the roof of the computer store next to the brown building fits the old picture. Mind you, I am blowing it way up in order to see. I would love to have higher resolution scans.

Does 28 bowling alleys, cocktails and coffee shop require this much air flow, or maybe it was a suggestion that the bowling shoes were adequately ventilated! Another way of advertising air conditioning, for smokers? :shrug: How was the air change measured? (With a clock? :haha:) |
