On the border between past and present: San Francisco in photo collages

In 1906, a powerful earthquake occurred in San Francisco. Most of the infrastructure was destroyed, and about 28,000 buildings were destroyed. Despite such a horrific scale of the tragedy, the city was restored quickly enough. Moreover, the architects took advantage of the opportunity to partially redevelop the districts.

In these photos you can see an interesting combination: the destruction of the past meets the present-day restored. Borders are blurred, one time passes into another. Only the places remain the same.
