At least here in Las Vegas street names change, plus the airport has
changed names, and our architecture library maintains a database of
casinos with when they opened, when they changed names, and when they
closed, so I use those bits of information to date city maps. County
seats and the boundaries of the seat also changed, so I sometimes can
date state maps using that information.
