Google Maps has added Street View features to a whopping 6 new US cities! These new cities include: Chicago, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland and Tucson. Most of these new cities also enable you to view up and around at buildings in select routes. A great example pointed out by Stephane Lafon in this Google LatLong Blog post is the Sears Tower in Chicago:
Street View on Google Maps gives you the ability to take a look at street level imagery of 15 cities. To view these cities, head over to Google Maps and click the "Street" View toggle button at the top of the map view. For a visual tour of the new additions to Google Maps, take a look at this great YouTube video or this Street View page:
How crazy is this, I spent a year studying in South India with Googles' Street View Mascot, Ryan Germick. This kid is hilarious and brilliant on the computer...not surprising he's now famous for wearing an orange leotard for one of the worlds leading computer software companies. Rumba Nalla Ryan! ~Kevin C.
