When he passed away I inherited all my fathers photographs and I've gradually been going through and scanning some of the more interesting ones.
He had a sequence taken in London at night, sometime in the 1960's, and when I've located the place, I've tried to revisit and take the similar shot as it is today.
Unfortunately some of the 35mm negatives appear to have been attacked by fungus, which makes getting a good scan more difficult.
This is the Anchor Inn on the bank of the River Thames at Southwark taken in the 1960's:

I've returned to the location several times, but due to building works last week was the first chance I got of taking a similar shot.
I couldn't set the tripod up in exactly the same location as the original so the angle is a little different, but here is the similar scene as it is today:
I wasn't sure if I wanted it in B&W so this is the colour version.

Whatever happened to Courage breweries?
