The O'Keefe Mansion was once located at 520 Summit in Fort Worth, TX. It was torn down in the 1950s and the site now serves as a parking lot.

All 3 of these photos show the same address: 857 Fifth Avenue, Manhattan, NY.
The first house was built in the 1880s, then demolished to make way for a new house in the 1900s, which gave way to this high rise in the 1960s. Makes you wonder just how unrecognizable Manhattan will be 100 years from now
