The SFMTA recently digitized an incredible collection of photos from the early 1900’s. And because looking at perfectly matched up “then and now” pics will never get old, Andrew Dudley over at Hoodline went out and shot the matching, present day views. Check it out:
Hermann at Fillmore looking west, October 1909
Fillmore at Duboce looking south, March 1910
Scott at Hayes looking south, June 1917
Church at Market looking north, February 1911
