Great Local Waco App

Whenever I’m in a new part of town I pull out my phone and open this app to see the history of the neighborhood. Great app.

A good start

I really enjoy this app. I hope some functionality, as well as places and events will be added later, like WWI's Rich Field air base, and historic cemeteries. It would be nice to have a "Suggestion Box" so users could suggest places and events. I would also like to be able to view a current Street View so I could see what those locations look like today.
