If you're a Google Street View fanatic then this new gallery of street view imagery is worthy of your time. It will also be useful for demonstrations when you want to show what famous locations look like when captured by Street View cameras. On a single page you can access imagery of many "famous" locations like:
+ The Tower Bridge in London
+ The Space Needle in Seattle
+ The U.S. Capitol and with State Capitol Buildings from Most States
+ The CN Tower in Toronto
+ Hawaii Beaches**
and many more locations.
* * Imagery from Hawaii is new to Google Street View. GSV now has imagery for all 50 states.
As much as we like Google Street View imagery we also like "Bird's Eye Imagery" from Bing Maps. Areas (global in scope) that have Bird's Eye imagery increase on a regular basis. Here's one example, the CN Tower in Toronto. Here's the map. To get to Bird's Eye, select "Aerial" (near the top of the maps) and the select "Bird's Eye."
