The ground doesn't look level at the top photo
But also remember that asphalt is removed and re-applied about once every 20 years. The asphalt was probably redone at least 3 times. There's a lot of possibility for slight variation over such a long period of time.
Um, that's a cobblestone street. And it goes on the ground. There is no asphalt involved in the construction of a cobblestone street. It's possible the ground has settled. But I call on you to show me anything in the two pictures that is identical. Again, not saying it isn't the same place, just that I don't see anything in the photos that I can see that something has simply aged, instead of completely changed.
