The maps illustrate how a specific town in the USA had changed from 1954 to 2014.
Overall, it is clear that the town had gradually been used for commercial purposes over the period. We can see that a large number of commercial towers were built in 2014.
The west centre of the map used to contain a garden and a residential area; however, these facilities had been transformed into commercial buildings. On the other hand, the west local market was removed to the original spot of the garden for commercial construction, while the old factories from the northeast corner were demolished to establish an airport. It is noticeable that the petrol station remained the same location on the upper side throughout the 60-year period.
The transport system stayed relatively unchanged with a canal and 3 main roads surrounded by trees. While the bottom-left sports stadium was built at the original side of a church, no change had been made for the residential houses from the southeast of the canal by the end of the period.
