You're right, Nia. This is a series about Paris during the 1900 World Fair. But if you are interested you can find pictures of other times (and places) at https://www.re.photos/ . For example, there are pictures about Paris during World War II ( https://www.re.photos/compilation/?tag=189 ) or during the Paris Commune (https://www.re.photos/compilation/?tag=188 ).

I believe you may need to do a little more research on what causes that.

Art is subjective and those pictures spoke to me. What's the point in buildings when our planet and animals on it are dying?

They were built specifically for the world's fair in 1900 and were deconstructed after. You can find many more pictures of these buildings in a whole series contributed by our user nwolpert: https://www.re.photos/compilation/?tag=190

That's true but in the case of most of our Paris rephotographies the missing buildings were meant to be temporary. They were built specifically for the world's fair in 1900 and were torn down after.

This is Bad Rothenfelde. Unfortunately, Bored Panda didn't provide direct links to the pictures on re.photos when they added additional pictures. You can find this compilation and its interactive comparison here: https://www.re.photos/compilation/1329/

Just to add to this great explanation: our user nwolpert has created a whole series of rephotographies comparing the time of the world's fair to today. You can find all pictures here: https://www.re.photos/compilation/?tag=190

It isn't, I can vouch for that since my girlfriend took the picture. ;-) Kuala Lumpur is a very diverse city and especially in that part of the town you can see colonial time buildings next to modern buildings.

Yes, I think so, too. But it was always clear that this buildings were temporary, so I guess we have to deal with it ;-)

7 Before & After Pics Showing How Paris Has Changed In 100+ Years

Exactly. It was always the plan to deconstruct these buildings after the World Fair.

It's a good thing we moved the heavy industry out of the cities and improved our processes.

OMG did you take a minute to read a single one of the information slips under the pictures? All of those building weren't old and they weren't part of Paris. They were just built for the world exhibition and then taken down. That's what was supposed to happen to the Eiffel tower, too, but in the end they kept it.

Please read the information attached to each photo. The buildings in the old photos were just put there for the Paris world exhibition. They weren't originally part of the city.

The World Fair was temporary.

It's almost like these photos should be backwards to show progress.
