Life in the Neighbourhood. Then and Now. School Days

Well one last Then and now set. This is Oliver School. The top picture shows the school as it appeared in 1911. The bottom shot shows it now with a gymnasium added on. Tomorrow l will post an addition which was built in 1929

[Diana]

So far I prefer all the "then" photo's ;-)

[Susie]

At least the 'old parts' are still in use

[Wendy]

super shot of history!

[Jane Anderson]

Somehow the B&W makes it seem even better!

[Lou Ann]

A great collage.

[Barry Lees]

The pics look inverted. The side facing left in the top picture is the same as the side facing right in the bottom picture.

[Candace]

Great old building!

[Chris H]

Love the black and white. Nice that it is still recognisable.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Great now and then collage and I love the horses in the B&W one.

[gloria jones]

Super "then" photo...nice comparisons

[Tina]

Love toen and now building

[Ivan]

Fascinating...still recognisable style...

[Lynne Hart]

Nice to see an old building allowed to remain, like the horses in the top picture.

[Jean]

Great that the old building was kept and used.

[Korcsog Károly]

Great pairing!

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Great shot

[Richard Hickey]

Cool collage.

[Lin]

Well captured - I love historic buildings!

[Granagringa]

You really have shown the contrast well...and so nice that they kept the architecture contextual.

[CC Folk]

Well, at least you can see the resemblance in these two photos. They did a better job of keeping the feel and history. Nice collage.
