Re: Google Maps Scavenger Hunt
A nice before and after... the first photo is from 1993:

Streetview picture from Nov 2015:
https://www.google.com/maps/@43.043828, ... 56!6m1!1e1
This crossing just up the way near the casino is a bit odd (but kind of scenic) due to the configuration of the roads:

https://www.google.com/maps/@43.0403535 ... 64!6m1!1e1
Another before and after in New Jersey... this first photo is from 1987:

Streetview from Sept 2016:

One more, then I'll quit. Burlington, IA from 1993:

Streetview 20 years later. The cantilever is different, but it's nice to see the steam engine still in it's same spot:

Gate mast is also the same, with the same lights as well, though the bell and gate mech have been replaced.cabman701 wrote: One more, then I'll quit. Burlington, IA from 1993:

Kind of interesting to see an advance warning sign for the side street.
