PastVu is a great site for finding historical photos from specific locations on a map. The interface is only partly in English, but it is easy enough browse the map to find pictures in a specific area.

There is also a slightly-confusing search function. Here is an example link to a filter specifying images from Tashkent between 1993 and 1999.
While PastVu is particularly rich in pictures from Eastern Europe, there are many user-contributed photos covering North America and other regions.
Here is an example of the kind of pictures you’ll find – these are from a 1990s Moscow market that specialized in bootleg software and VHS tapes:




The market was called “Gorbushka” (Горбушка).
