New Orleans added to Google Street View

[PSUFAN]

It looks like a lot of cities have been added, along with an interface overhaul.

Here's the shithole shotgun shack where I lived in '93-'94:

The statue of the Virgin was headless when I lived there. Some pious soul has apparently restored it.

Lots of ruins on those maps...

Gay brothel, Barney Frank would be proud of you.

A freudian non sequitur from Jerknick? None too shocking, I guess...

No photos of my old house in CNY, but there is a 360º shot from in front of my place here in Fort Myers. They took it on a Monday as the trash bins are out to the curb, and I was home, the Maxima is in the garage with the door open. They must be spending mega buck$ to go around and photograph all of this.

They didn't catch the dumpater, I guess.

Here's the house I occupied while in HS. Hard to believe it's still there. That window facing front just above the garage was my room.

I guess it's for sale. Wonder if it was foreclosed?

[PSUFAN]

They definitely have megabucks to burn.

My apartment in Richmond VA - 1993

Bwaaaahahaha! There's a dude picking up cans that fell out of his bag - growth industry in Richmond.

You sure he's not actually placing them there on the ground?

[PSUFAN]

Shit - I'm dead sure, Mikey. Those things are worth - what, 5 centavos a pound?

MUCH easier to spend 12 hours a day collecting cans for a 40 than it is to hold down a job.

Not so much.

Here's where I'll be staying in NOLA next week.

Pretty cool stuff. This is where I had my first apartment off campus that I acutally paid for myself...

Nice place. No furniture though.

This site is pretty cool.

All sorts of goodies that people spotted on the street view.

This site describes an orchestrated Street View event that took place at the Mattress Factory museum in Pittsburgh. Pretty cool...unless pasting in Obama's policy goals and accepting hooves into your colon are more to your liking, of course...
