As the city changed over time, unthinkable construction make them unrecognizable. That far to go, let’s take an example to Moscow as it was 10 years ago and now it’s enormous because of all the changes.

Apparently, San Francisco has moved across the Bay to Oakland's Lake Merritt.
The photo of Paris is skewed… Skyscrapers are banned in Paris, all except for in La Defense, the financial district, which is pictured in the 2004 but not in the 1900 photo. If you took a picture of any other part of Paris, it would probably look exactly the same.
That's Brisbane, not San Francisco near the end.
