This is absolutely lovely. Thank you.

The underlying map is modern across all timelines. What would be super awesome is if the underlying map would also change, based on historical propery deeds, maps and ariel photos. For example, the 1893 world's fair is when much housing was constructed. The entire coastline also changed during this timeline. This would be an order of magnitude more work...
