I particularly like the ones with people in old dress- thanks for posting those.

It's almost as if the one old woman is saying to the other old woman (and they probably weren't that old), "My GOODNESS, Bessie, can you BELIEVE what those future people are wearing? No hats and I believe I see some uncovered limbs! Poppycock! Let's get out of here! Quick! To our dandy horses!"

Another good one. Try this photo of the Coffin Block. A little far away but you can apply your magic.

I don't think this one's getting torn down. Two things: One, building is too iconic and in excellent shape (they are apparently hoping a single "name" tenant will jump at the chance), and two, this is still an odd shaped piece of land. You think jamming Trump on that tiny corner was hard.....
