Ripple Time Map

Ripple Time Map turns the world around you into a portal to the past. Open the app, look at the map, and see historic photos pinned to the exact places where they were taken — sometimes a hundred years ago, sometimes ten.

Walk down a familiar street and watch it transform. The corner store used to be a streetcar stop. The empty lot used to be a theater. The waterfront used to look completely different. Every pin is a small window into how a place became what it is today.
