It's amazing to see the buildings that are still there. Moving the mouse quickly left and right on the comparison picture shows up quite a few buildings that appear unchanged.
In some areas of Boston, you'd actually see a large number of buildings still there from 1860--although that would be just a little early for the Back Bay to be fully completed. The aa in this photo is, to a large degree, the West End which was mostly torn down to construct the concrete monstrosity which is Government Center among other changes.
