I rebuilt New York in 3D, showing how the city evolved over the centuries, from its early beginnings to the skyline we know today.

Watch the city transform as streets, buildings and skyscrapers appear over time, revealing the incredible growth of one of the world's most iconic cities.

5 minutes, no narration:

I'd love to hear what New Yorkers think: which period or part of the city's history would you like to see explored in more detail?
