Just reading through my Sep 09 National Geographic mag this morning and found an interesting article on New York city.
The article shows current day photos of various spots around the city and then shows artists impressions of how they were before civilization.
The article is online here (http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2009/09/manhattan/miller-text) for those interested.

And this (http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2009/09/mannahatta/mannahatta-animation) has an interactive image that shows you many views
The full gallery is here (http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2009/09/manhattan/clark-photography) ... every 2nd photo shows what the preceding photo looked like once upon a time.
