From village to suburb

Today, my home town of Rijswijk looks merely like a suburb of The Hague and Delft. This was not always the case. The maps below show how Rijswijk has grown from being largely agricultural to a dense mixture of housing and businesses. The first is an ordinance survey map from 1911, the second captures the same spot using Google Maps.
