San Francisco has been the subject of endless talks on gentrification, rising rents, and uber expensive neighborhoods; but how has the local real estate scenery changed, visually speaking?

Our friends over at Point2 Homes put together a series of exciting before-and-after San Francisco satellite images that show major sites around the city and how they’ve changed in the course of the past 12 years. And some of them are pretty amazing (simply mouse over the slide to toggle between the 2001 and 2013 views):

1. San Francisco General Hospital

If you’d like to use these images on your website, head over to the Point2 Homes blog, where you will find the embeddable code.

2. Mission Bay Neighborhood

3. The Transbay Terminal

4. Letterman Digital Arts Center

5. Presidio Parkway
