Historic New York in today's world

Photographer and historian Marc Hermann pulled pictures from the New York Daily News archive and blended some historic crime scene photos with photos of the same locations today.
Hermann masterfully juxtaposed historic crime scenes by overlaying them on the same buildings in today\'s time. This is at 497 Dean Street in Brooklyn on March 19, 1942, when a woman went out on a ledge -- wobbling as she fought away police trying to help her.
