American Memory: Panoramic Photos
The Library of Congress has a collection of historic panoramic photos from 1851-1991. High quality images are available, as well as just about any location. The panoramas of major cities over time allow you to see how things have changed.
In St. Paul, for example, you can see a couple early photos where Harriet Island is clearly still an island (1, 2).
