I love old photos. I can look at them all day long.

Yeah I don't know what it is, there's just something intriguing about vintage photography. Especially the technology. I love those old cutaway drawings too:

Forgot how old Indian Point 1 is. It's no longer operational, but the other two are.

Even some of the old color photos are pretty amazing, like these old NYC ones.

look at how we've evolved.. now the men are fat like the women in that pic, and the women are frail, like the man in that pic.

A huge addiction of mine is reading up on old new york city and other american cities.

Thank you for that.

The technology stuff is amazing. There's so many inventions where I'm like, "oh, I have an app for that". But then there's crazy stuff like this:

The one of the boy (in the suit) and his sister looks like it could have been taken yesterday, let alone 70 years ago.

Guilty pleasure of mine as well.

Go here, place a marker on a point on the map, then click the marker. I've found maps back to 1894 for some local areas to me. You can blow them up and download them as well.
