"Artists need to make money to eat and to continue to make art. Artists used to rely on middlemen to collect their money on their behalf, thereby rendering themselves innocent of cash-handling in the public eye. Artists will now be coming straight to you (yes YOU, you who want their music, their films, their books) for their paychecks. Please welcome them. Please help them. Please do not make them feel badly about asking you directly for money.” -Amanda Palmer

You know about Shorpy, right?  I could spend half a day paging through those archives.

I do. If you ever break something and need links, you should check out this site of a guy who comments there:

In this picture from 1900, the building in the background on the right side of the street, above the streetcar, is in the spot where I make coffee drinks. There was a big preservation battle but in the end they demolished that building to build a parking garage, and then built a grocery store on the first floor a few years later.

Sometimes the before and after pictures you can see on this site are just too heartbreaking to bear.

Social pressures exist
And if you think about them all of the time
You're gonna find that your head's been kicked in
You're gonna do it all for the grind
