Google Maps Photographs Neighborhood


Kathy Kerr reported on August 3, 2009 that she saw the Google Maps car passing through the neighborhood taking photos. You will see them on Google Maps when you look up a Barcroft address and select Street View.

Check out the Community House at 800 S. Buchanan St and you will see a sign on the fence for our National Night Out ice cream social that week. Other highlights:

  • At 4614 Sixth St S you will see a person trimming roses and putting them in a CVS bag.
  • At 702 S. Wakefield two people are working on a bicycle, way back up the driveway.
  • The school bulletin board has "First Day of School -- Welcome Back," evidence of Barcroft's year-round school schedule. Across the street, Dave Oddenino's tomato plants are strikingly healthy.
  • On 7th St around the corner a red-headed teacher with an armload of books lets the Google car pass before crossing the street to her car.
  • Further down 7th (the only street with two motorcycles) toward the park two guys stand gawking at the Google machine.
  • In the 4800 block of S. 9th, a runner is struggling up the hill from the park toward Buchanan.
There is lots more to see with this remarkable service. But when the Googlemobile comes through to refresh, things may change.
