Take a Virtual Stroll

You can actually take a virtual stroll through the neighborhood via Google Maps' camera vantage map view. Here's how:

1) Click on any of the orange map pins or dots to open a pop-up balloon for the address. In the balloon click on the highlighted address. Then click on the "Street View" box (to the right). This opens a camera street view of the location.

2) Place the cursor on any location where you wish to go, up or down the street, and double-click. Voila! Your viewpoint will change to that new location.

3) You can also use the map's "pedestrian" icon to travel to a location that's outside of the camera field of view. In the lower righthand corner of the camera view, in a little box, you will find a street map version. That box has a pedestrian icon, a little orange person. Just click on the pedestrian icon and hold/drag it to a new location on the street map (camera views of streets that are available are highlighted in blue). To use this function, first click on the Zoom's "+" sign to zoom to the desired level where steeet names become visible. If needed, you can click within the map then hold/drag with the "hand" to reposition the center of the map. If you wish to see the street view of the map in an expanded size click on the double arrows on the border of the map. Clicking the double arrows again will collapse the view back tto the small box size.

(Note: One day I might create a Google Earth tour for each neighborhood, we'll see.)
