A Bird's-Eye View of Worthington

The absence of foliage and clarity of the air in wintertime may extend your line of sight-- and you can see even further in this collection of aerial photographs taken high above Worthington. These images span decades, representing the landscape across the 1950s, '60s, '70s and '90s. Check out the "More Nearby…" link alongside each photo for the geographic coordinates and current satellite image of each location and you'll see just how much some areas of town have developed, while others appear virtually unchanged.
