In Photos: Union City, Then and Now

What did Union City look like 110 years ago, or 100 years ago, or 70 years ago, or even only 35 years ago

Reading history books can give us an idea, but photographs make it instantly clear. By comparing photographs of then versus now, it is easy to see what older buildings existed and exactly where they existed.

This photograph gallery shows pictures of Union City, both then and now. The "then" photographs go back as far as 1898 and are as recent as 1975. The "now" photographs were taken in 2011.

The historical photographs come from the collection of the Museum of Local History.
