The Museum of the City of New York has a phone app that lets you compare past and present. Amusing, although not the deepest analysis out there.

One comment from me, that might not even rise to the level of a quibble: the phrase “The Gilded Age” was invented by Mark Twain and it was meant as anything but a compliment.
