I tried to find a thread for this, but I couldn't after searching a while. Apologies if there is a thread for this. Anyways:
Since GSV was introduced in 2006, there's been a lot of changes in the world. But certain areas look almost completely unrecognizable from how they were just a decade ago, whether by development, disaster, or something else. What's the most drastic change? Here are a couple of examples:
Development Along TX-288 In Pearland

follow us-6 off of i-70 toward loveland pass via gsv. you'll go from what looks like summer, to a snowpacked us-6 with about 3 clicks.

Rosemont has green-lit huge swaths of development around I-294 between I-190 and Balmoral Ave as well as the Fashion Outlets south of Balmoral. Driving this stretch looks nothing like it used to, not to mention the highway has seen multiple waves of reconstruction.
2009: https://goo.gl/maps/XPx8YurpjjHPpvHn7
2019: https://goo.gl/maps/XR6UQeS1w2kGDMLV6
Be sure to look 360 degrees around, as there's things built on both sides of the tollway.
There's also been big changes at the west end of Balmoral heading in the direction of O'Hare, with a new airport access road over Mannheim being built recently.

Anybody ?

In the top left corner, it's the clock icon. It will only appear if older imagery exists, though.

If you're on the mobile app, I don't think you can. On a browser you click on the clock next to where it says the date that the GSV you are currently viewing was shot. In the top left corner.

You're right, that was a big oversight. I thought the same thing after you mentioned it in the Irondequoit Meet thread, and came back here to mention it.
My personal favorite is a bit further north: 2007 (https://www.google.com/maps/@43.157383,-77.5960758,3a,75y,190.4h,89.88t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1s5Kuv95k4eMN6Pp2267t1Bw!2e0!5s20070801T000000!7i3328!8i1664) vs. 2020 (https://www.google.com/maps/@43.1574265,-77.5961641,3a,90y,201.34h,89.87t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1siEyiA930IWGEze7AbqG-Ug!2e0!5s20201101T000000!7i16384!8i8192).
(I've got the views pointing south so you can see the Rochester Eye Center in both shots, but if you pan around, the change in the view facing north is even more dramatic!)
Vaughan Metropolitan Centre at the intersection of Highway 7 and Jane Street. Used to be nothing, now there's a Subway station, BRT, and also high-rise developments.

This is a bit of a bump, but since it came up in another thread, how about the US customs area at Whirlpool Bridge: 2017 (https://goo.gl/maps/4AvoWpj23Lpw14fXA) vs. 2022 (https://goo.gl/maps/Q5j4DhRRrmo7Xp6HA)
The end of US 6 in Provincetown, MA has changed three times since its construction. Went from a HUGE rotary to a long taper to a surface street to a shorter taper to a surface street, all over the course of half a century.
I was in Bastrop about 9 years ago and remember walking down this street where there was a Walgreens. I found the Walgreens.

I've had somewhat of a fixation on the "Quad State Supercell" and the ensuing high-end tornado that destroyed a lot of Mayfield, KY. The before-and-after tornado imagery in previous posts reminds me of scenes like this, that I saw on a visit to Mayfield 3 weeks ago. Click between the Aug 2019 and Dec 2022 imagery. It's baffling.

Wow, that is stunning. Always a bit harder to take in when an element of nature suddenly changes things. Reminds me a bit of Lac Megantic, QC after the rail disaster, which was mentioned in a similar thread or earlier in this one.

In browsing some of the old posts in this thread, I'm surprised to find that a lot of the old stuff is no longer available in GSV. I had never noticed that they were ditching any of the crappy old 2007-9 imagery, because most places I look still have it. But some places have been stripped of more than just the oldest blurry stuff.
I don't understand why Google Maps has historical street view and only current aerial, and Google Earth has historical aerial and only current street view.

Maybe the latter photo was taken early on a weekend morning. That's about the only time I can think of when traffic would be light there, barring a bad accident a couple miles upstream.

How about the Capital Beltway's Inner Loop approaching I-66 in June 2008 (prior to HO/T lane construction on the Beltway) (https://goo.gl/maps/KhimjSQ64VMLZZCQ9) and earlier this month (after HO/T lane construction on I-66) (https://goo.gl/maps/em28yG6p6acM3cgs8)–although I'm somewhat surprised by how little traffic there is in the latter photo. Or, at the same overall interchange, eastbound I-66 between the two sides of the Beltway in June 2008 (https://goo.gl/maps/Xpq6xAxMsA64RvHn7) versus July 2023 (https://goo.gl/maps/E28KSoKRseHSTGDw8).
Maybe the latter photo was taken early on a weekend morning. That's about the only time I can think of when traffic would be light there, barring a bad accident a couple miles upstream.
Could be, although the $7.50 toll for the I-66 HO/T lanes suggests a slightly busier time. I just panned the image around and I think the Google driver was just lucky to be between clumps of vehicles right then.

I'm not checking out the images, but I imagine you can add Lahaina, Hawaii to this list, now and forevermore.
They don't have GSV yet, naturally, but they have some pretty terrifying aerial imagery.

In browsing some of the old posts in this thread, I'm surprised to find that a lot of the old stuff is no longer available in GSV. I had never noticed that they were ditching any of the crappy old 2007-9 imagery, because most places I look still have it. But some places have been stripped of more than just the oldest blurry stuff.
I don't understand why Google Maps has historical street view and only current aerial, and Google Earth has historical aerial and only current street view.
Where did this happen? Sometimes it glitches and you have to cross to the other direction or move down one click to get the old stuff back.
