New Orleans 1910s

I found this postcard showing Canal Street in New Orleans in the early 1910s. I'm struck by two things: 1) How much the city is unchanged more than 100 years later; 2) How many street cars are running up and down canal street

The image is an Albertype and the Albertype Company produced thousands of these in the early 1900s and they also did view books about a lot of cities, see link here:

The University of Pennsylvania library's website has several old view books on line:
