Has anyone seen http://www.historicaerials.com ? They have some great shots of providence and you can swipe back and forth between current and historic aerial shots. The interface is very buggy & slow, but it's still a lot of fun. My street underwent some heavy urban renewal around 1970 or so, and its really cool to see the changes. They also have aerials of I95 under construction.

I was just looking at it, neato. Look at comparisons of Pawtucket between 1963 and 1971. The late 60's seem to be when Pawtucket got bombed out.
