Old Houston Photos Mashed With Modern Houston, Part 3: Cleaners, Carpets and Chevys
Check out the first and second installments of old Houston photos mashed up with modern-day Houston.
Old, meet new.
Here we go with our third installment of vintage Houston photos mashed with their present-day locations.
This round we show you several different locations surrounding downtown and Montrose. Also, we go back to 1992 and revisit a British invasion (that happened 20 years ago this Sunday) that even made the boys weep.
