This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Same location, look for the tall white tower with the vertical stripes and balconies, which is in the middle of the bottom photo. Top photo is slightly more zoomed out.

Center of the picture,the building at the top of the color picture seems to be the same one as is found 5 or six buildings north west of the building in the center of the picture in black and white

I'm still not quite seeing it

I would bother with these images tbh since the bottom one is clearly cutting out an unknown amount of the built-up centre...

Sorry about that; these were just random images of the right place/times from a low-effort web search. I remember seeing a side-by-side comparison somebody made that was better, but I couldn't find it again. (I could only find side-by-sides of 1978 vs 2011, when they started removing the parking lots and filling it back in.)

Fair enough, but it's hard to tell unless the comparative images are from sufficiently-similar angles
