The maps below show the town of Langley in 1910 and 1950. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The given maps depict the changes that occurred in the town of Langley and how it was in the past years. 

In 1910, on both sides of Jordan Street, there were few small houses. The same street towards the south was facing the railway lines just beside the cottages for railway employees as well as wasteland. Sherman Street was surrounded by houses and ended at the cafe opposing store and laundry buildings. In the north side, there was a factory on the right of another wasteland.

Forty years later, most of the Sherman street area was replaced by a new park having particular playing area for children. The  Factory was diminished and new buildings were constructed named as Sherman Mansions. Laundry and Cafe relocated to the wasteland area near mansions. A new lane was built with multiple stores where there were railway cottages years before. Jordan Street's houses were changed to three dedicated buildings for flats.

 Overall, there were a number of notable changes to the buildings and amenities of this area.
