Hi, here are some comments for you:
- by added -> by adding
- was place in -> was placed in / was located to
- the industrial were -> the industrial area was

Avoid using exaggerated terms like "obliterated". Use words that properly describe the situation. You could say the area was renovated, improved, or upgraded. Use positive sounding words as there was no negative setting to begin with. This is not war time so there is no obliteration occurring. For more clarity in the presentation, you should use the 2 reporting paragraphs to clearly explain the 2009 image first, then the 2014 image second. That way the image descriptions are truly representative of each year. You could start the paragraph saying that "The 2009 image clearly outlines the way the town used the area at that time." Then proceed to describe it. After that, the last paragraph can start with "By the time 2014 came around, the town had undergone significant changes." The you can do the comparison points regarding specific and related changes only.

By the way, you wrote just the right number of words for this essay. However, you failed to edit your work and correct the errors related to spelling and grammar. You should have looked for spelling and grammar errors when you finished your draft so you could have corrected these errors that would have a direct effect on your final LR and GRA score.
