The images depict the transformation of Lakeside from 2000 to 2009. Overall, the town underwent a significant modernization process, resulting in a substantial shift from traditional infrastructure to more contemporary amenities. Notable changes include the conversion of older town facilities into modern equivalents, the demolition of a residential area to accommodate industrial expansion, and the shrinking of the lake into a pond. However, the school and a northern residential area remained untouched.
In 2000, Lakeside was bisected by a stream originating from a lake in the north. On the left side of the stream, two residential areas were separated by an art center and a school. Adjacent to the northern residential zone, residents had access to a derelict warehouse and an old town center. On the right side of the stream, a southern housing area and an industrial complex occupied the land.
By 2009, both sides of the stream had experienced significant alterations along with twice less water bank in the pond than the prior lake. On the left side, the central residential zone had been replaced by a modern shopping center. The derelict warehouse was demolished to create a parking lot, while the old town was replaced by offices and a university. The art center was transformed into a cinema, while the school and northern residential area remained unchanged. On the right side of the stream, the industrial complex had expanded significantly, swallowing the southern residential area.
