London Time Machine

This may be the coolest thing on the internet at the moment. It’s the famous Morgan Map of 1682 which shows London after the great fire of 1666. Then, it has a spyglass that overlays a satellite view of modern London. You can see ancient St. James Palace and the Buckingham House that became the palace. The Tower. The docks, old and new. St. Paul’s. The fields to the south of the river.

If you need me, I’ll be exploring this for the rest of the night…
