I found Google Streetview's time travel feature. Taipei has been through many changes, even in the short time the images go back. Some were good, many I'd say were not. I tried for some balance in the pictures. A lot of historic places and communities, with character and life, have been demolished. And I know this process is being repeated in all cities around the island.
Part of the reason I chose to move to Taipei is that it looked like it still had a lot of interesting neighborhoods. Many large cities in the region either don't, or they're cleaned-up like museums. Five years later a lot is left here, but a huge amount has gone and the city is less interesting.
I don't understand why fake old buildings are being built in one part of the city, while genuine historic places are being destroyed in other parts. And why are restorations often so overdone? They make a place look brand new, totally erasing any character. Progress is important, but there must be a better way to shape the city. Is Taipei just going to become a big dull expanse of marble and glass, with a few museum 'show-homes' thrown in?
