Time Travel
This app is wonderful and a real pleasure every time I roam around the city. If you like New York City; if you like architecture; if you like history, this app is for you.
Some information hierarchy needs work, a few buildings are labelled incorrectly and it isn’t easy to fix that, like it is on, say, google lyrics but it’s still worth it

Interesting and fun way to learn about the city!
Urban archives is such a great way to learn more about the city! It’s a really accesible way to learn more about NYC’s history and seeing what was on your block 100 years ago is actually really cool!
I ❤️ Urban Archive
Love this app! It’s a wonderful opportunity for newcomers to NYC to unearth the city’s rich history and for native New Yorkers like myself to rediscover the streets we’ve always known. The sleek and interactive interface is also super user friendly — a must have for anyone interested in getting a glimpse into the storied past of the New York of yesteryear!
