The image presents two maps comparing the town of Lakeside between the years 2000 and 2009. The maps are oriented with a north indicator. In the 2000 map, the town comprises a large lake in the center, surrounded by the Old Town and residential areas. Notably, there's a derelict warehouse zone adjacent to the Old Town. A river flows alongside and partly encircles the town’s southern boundary. The south-west section includes an industrial complex and another residential area. A central residential zone sits south of the lake, while an Arts Centre and School are located in the south-east.
By 2009, Lakeside underwent several changes. While the lake and river maintain their presence, the derelict warehouses have been replaced by a car park, offices, and a university. The original woodland near the lake remains unchanged, but a new pond appears east of the lake. The multi-screen cinema and shopping center are new additions, located adjacent to the river in what was a simple, unlabeled expansion space. The south-western industrial complex and southern residential zones appear unaltered. The Arts Centre of 2000 has been replaced, or possibly incorporated, with schools in the 2009 map. Such transformations reflect urban redevelopment focusing on enhancing educational facilities and commercial activity while maintaining some green spaces like woodland and adding new water features such as the pond.
Given the complexity of the image, the above description may not be entirely accurate.

In general, the area underwent a massive change from 2000 to 2009. It is evident that the town became more industrialized and modern with the wideness of the Industrial complex and the appearance of some welfare building.
To begin with, I will report a striking change of the Industrial complex, which was situated on the South-East side of the river. With the demand for profit, woodland and the southeast residential area were dwindled and disappeared to make an empty place for the Industrial complex to expand its size.
On the other side of the river, it is obvious that the west residential area and the Arts Centre were both transferred into a shopping centre and Multi-screen cinema in order to meet resident’s entertainment needs. The same was true for the derelict warehouses and the Old Town, they were both replaced by a car park, offices and a university. With the shortness of the woodland, the lake also was shrunk, made the water flows of it became less than before. In contrast, the North-West residential area and the school still remained through the period.
