Our Apartment, Then And Now, Taipei, Taiwan

Thanks to LTC Scott Ellinger, pictures of our old apartment show what a real change took place in our complex over a 40+ year time period.

The area was fairly new back then, but each place was apparently converted into an individually owned apartment.

This declassified 1969 satellite photo shows the DaHeng Road area circled in blue.

Today, our old place is the apartment on floor three.

The apartment on the first floor would flood at its side door entrance. The owner obviously added a front entrance.

We all seem to like then and now pictures of buildings and places in Taiwan which are still standing. This is 1968 versus 2011.
