You witnessed our first installation of “Buffalo Street View” spread like wildfire (click here if you missed it). Apparently the drastic changes to Buffalo’s cityscape over the past eight years haven’t gone unnoticed–and if they have, people were definitely surprised. It’s now acceptable to tell visitors: “Pardon the dust, our city is being renovated!”

With the help of Google Street View—which has been capturing our streets since 2007—we’re back to exploring Buffalo’s most drastic then-and-now street views. After scouring through hundreds of your suggestions and comments we’ve narrowed down the list for our second edition. Take a look!
