Some people think that staying in hotels is not a good option to know about a country or its people. What do you think about this viewpoint?

The maps illustrate the changes that took place in the town of Langley from 1910 to 1950. 

According to the

first

diagram in 1910, on the left

side

of the

map

was Jordon

street

, along which were a wide number of townhouses on both sides.

Moreover

, the right

side

of the

map

was separated from various houses by

Sherman

street

, where a store and a laundry were on one

side

, and a cafe was on the other

side

. The upper region of the

map

was a factory and wasteland.

Likewise

, the lower

map

was a wasteland and railway workers’ cottages.

 Turning to the

second

map

in 1950, Jordon

street

and

Sherman

street

remained unchanged;

however

, townhouses were turned into three flats on the left

side

of Jordon

street

.

Similarly

, the factory was replaced by

Sherman

mansions, and

Sherman

park with a children’s play area in the bottom right corner took the place of wasteland. It is worth noting that a new lane was constructed and the number of stores increased in size, whereas the railway line was lost. 
Overall, it is evident that

this

area became larger with more facilities and tall buildings over the 40 years.
