Just point your mouse at the thumbnails below the image to walk up and down the block.

The same kind of information is available for business streets all over town, for 15 cities so far. Here's information on the project and how they did it:

Very very cool! I want to move right now!

[davidlevine]

So what's up with that? I see you are repainting your library... are you planning to keep the house (houses??) in ABQ? When's the move?

[korith.livejournal.com]

We have a crazy plan going into place.

1) Rent the House by July 1st
2) House sit/couch surf for two months.
3) Visit PDX to find rental Aug 29-31
4) Visit London Sept 1st-15th
5) Move to PDX 18-20 ish.

Billy starts his PhD program the next week.
As for me.. well I am actually trying to convince my job here to let me telecomute from PDX and fly down here (on my dime) once a month - which makes managing the house easier.

So are you guys in town Aug 29th-31 at all?

[davidlevine]

Yes, we're in town then. Love to see you!

OH WOW!

It's pretty amazing, all right.

One thing I'm not certain about is whether it's any USE at all. But it sure is fun!
