There's this pretty awesome photo blog site I found called NYC Grid.  It's a photo blog dedicated to exploring New York block by block.  They have tons of galleries with photos of MANY different blocks in NYC.  This gallery I like in particular because it compares differnt areas and landmarks of NYC during 1961 vs 2009.  Check it out by clicking here.
