My childhood home has been bulldozed to widen a road.
I feel like Charlie Brown.
Here’s mine. The red marker is a bit off though. My house is actually like a centimeter NW (across the street and on the left side). Still cool though.
:smack: My mind is playing tricks on me. Here it is for real.
Our house is here.
It is 5 houses up from the left cul-de-sac.
I live here, in the building that looks like an upside down T.
I don’t think it has anything to do with the Vols though.

If National Geographic’s Map Machine isn’t plotting against me.
It don’t work.
:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
Here’s where we’re staying right now.
Here’s the house in Ohio that we’re selling. (More or less in the center of the image. It’s not the best resolution or detail).
Here’s my office.
Terraserver doesn’t work for me, either.
Here’s mine…
(In case the little red push pin doesn’t show up it’s almost smack-dab in the middle of the picture. Right on the big street that divides the picture there are three trees. The middle tree is in front of our house. Makes a right big mess too…)
Sigh.
Ugh…that was too depressing. Time to cheer up…roller coaster ride, anyone?
Cool. Even has my wife’s car in the driveway. And hey, I still need to water the lawn!
And this intersection (where the cars are bunched to the right of the freeway) doesn’t look nearly as crazy-making from the air as it actually is to navigate.
Here’s mine (more or less dead centre of that view).
If you go up the block from the T-shaped building and the little building in the big parking lot, my house is the roundish looking part of that weirdly shaped white spot. It looks like my house has collided with my neighbors’ in that photo.
It’s on the right side of the fork, the rectangular house. That corner was scary to live on.
It refuses to find the street I grew up on. I certainly don’t remember my street being nine blocks long.
Amsterdam dopers, I’ve found the greatest site. Come find your street. http://www.panoramsterdam.nl/
My house is in this street [beginning of the street, where the green traffic light is ]
This is where I’d love to live. But that will never happen.
Here are the Pullinses. (“L” shaped driveway, nearest, just above, the rightside, middle arrow)

Right here. You will see a cul-de-sac type street running up from the bottom center of the photo. My condo complex is the group of buildings on the right hand side of the cul-de-sac just before the street ends.
Your bad luck it wasn’t a bypass. Then you could have felt like Arthur Dent!
My wife’s childhood home was bulldozed to make way for I-4 interchange improvements.
The house we lived in when I was born: the road cutting NW-SE across the lower left corner is Laurel Canyon Drive in Los Angeles; the biggest road crossing it, trending SSW-NNE, is Mulholland Drive, as in the movie. Going north on Mulholland, the first right after Laurel Cyn is Woodrow Wilson Drive, which you’ve heard of if you’re an Elvis Cole fan. Mine’s the first house on the right (towards the bottom of the pic) once you’re on WW Dr.
Once upon a time (as in, before aboout 1972), ordinary people could actually afford real estate like that.
Where I grew up (house in upper left)
Where I live now, back when the neighborhood was under construction. Follow the main road winding from upper left to bottom center. See the cul-de-sac off the main road at bottom center? There’s a house under construction directly across the main road from the cul-de-sac; the house next to it on the main road, going up and to the left, is mine.
