New York City has always been a major hub for financial, commercial, and cultural development with its iconic skyscrapers and dense population.

New York City is always bustling with development projects, and some of the largest projects and most visited areas of the city have photospheres dating back to 2009. With that, Gizmodo scoured the city for the most abrupt changes in the skyline and went back in time to compare then and now.
