Have you ever wondered what the area you live in now looked like 30 or 50 years ago? If so, re.photos website, recently established by a group of people fascinated with then-and-now photography, has a database full of pictures that might help you out.

This database allows anyone, who shares a love for before and after pictures, to contribute their photographs and compare what a street, an area, or a famous landmark looks like now and the way it did way back in the past.

Scroll down below to see what traces urbanization, globalization, and global warming have left on our surroundings over time, and visit the page to see more.

10. Engabreen Glacier, Norway, 1889 – 2010

Axel Lindahl’s picture of Engabreen from 1889 shows the foot of the glacier, where there was only ice, glacial gravel, water, and bare mountainsides in a seemingly cold and hostile landscape.

Now, more than 120 years later, the valley has become far more fertile. Birch forest, shore meadows, willow thickets, and marshland have established themselves, while the glacier arm has retreated far back up the mountainside.

23. The Eiffel Tower, Paris, France, 1900 – 2017

The Seine bank during the world’s fair of 1900.

Next to the Eiffel Tower, the “Globe Céleste” was one of the main attractions. It was a monumental heavenly globe of 45 meters in diameter, in which visitors could sit in a chair, while panoramas of the solar system were passed over. The ball was carried by 4 pillars, between which stairs and elevators allowed the visitors the ascent.
In the “Marerama”, the building with the four corner towers to the left, visitors were simulated to be on the deck of a ship with a panorama of the large Mediterranean ports.

The exhibition pavilions located directly on the shore on the left were dedicated to navigation, trade, and navigation.

30. The Grinnell Glacier, Montana, USA, 1911 – 2008

The 1911 photo shows Grinnell Glacier poised at the top of the waterfalls in the foreground and joined with what is now called Salamander Glacier in the background. Grinnell described this wall of ice as being 1,000 feet high in 1887.

As of 2008, that wall of ice is gone and Grinnell Glacier is not even visible in the contemporary photograph. Instead, it is behind the buff-colored ridge just above the waterfalls. Salamander Glacier lies along the Garden Wall below the ridgeline.

This glacier is thinning in the middle so rapidly that it will probably be in two pieces within a few years. To the upper left is the small, rounded glacier, Gem Glacier, that until recently had not shown signs of retreat. It, too, is now becoming smaller.

39. Rue De La Paix, Paris, France, 1871 – 2016

Barricade of revolutionary Paris Commune in 1871 in the rue de la Paix (confluence Place Vendôme).

In the spring of 1871, it comes for an uprising in Paris of the workers and soldiers of the National Guard against the conservative government.

In spontaneous elections, a Paris city council (commune) is formed, whose members (communards) try to enforce the transformation of France into a socialist union of sovereign communities against the will of the central government. After bloody clashes, the communards finally gain control of Paris.

  • LaRue Architects @laruearchitects [IG] Designs a U Shaped Home Around Heritage Oak Groves in Austin Hill Country

The Cliffside House Perched Above Lake Austin, by LaRue Architects:

This sprawling home was designed and built atop a steep hillside, 75 feet above Lake Austin. The homeowners, a young professional couple with three small children, wanted their home to be all about ‘lake life.’ To take advantage of the spectacular lake views and the surrounding heritage oak trees, LaRue Architects designed the structure with large expanses of glass making the home transparent from front to back upon entry providing incredible vistas throughout the home.
