My rural (then) hometown was rearranged out of existence. They even changed the name.

I visited 5 years back and it was weirder than I imagined. Most of the roads don't go in the same direction any more. A massive 100year old prison complex was erased.

The woods were cleared for roads, parks and housing. Meanwhile, the prison fields had grown into woods. Taken together, it was right out of my 7yo Kafka-dreams.
