Editor’s note: This letter is addressed to our own Sarah Schofield, the mastermind behind our recent Then & Now special section.
Editor: Hello, Sarah, I wanted to write and tell you that you have done an amazing job blending past scenes in Chatham-Kent with present day pictures.
I find the initial example of an almost demolished Harrison Hall against the modern day backdrop to be particularly effective.
I don’t know whose idea this was, but it’s brilliant and graphically illustrates the changes that have taken place in well-known buildings and places.
I really hope that you will do this again.
I have trouble imagining what things used to look like having moved here in 1979 and you have allowed me to see the transformation in a way that explains what words can’t.
Thanks so much!
Sheila Gibbs
