As most readers of this blog know, Buffalo NY is my hometown. There's a wonderful collection of old (and new) photos taken in and around Buffalo available at the Western New York Heritage website. Above is an aerial view of McKinley Square from back in the 1920s-- those familiar with the area will notice that City Hall is missing from the lower right of the picture, missing because it would not be built until some years later. Many of the pages in this collection include then and now comparisons, and if you're like me, you'll end up whiling away a couple hours checking them all out. I'd be curious to know if you find any particular favorites, so let me know in the comments section.
