August 2007. I see an apartment building mostly obscured by trees. Home Sweet Home!
Mine has changed somewhat since August of 2011. It’s an entirely different color now and some of the vegetation is gone and I put up a shed.
There used to be a street view of my house, but someone (not me) must have told them that we live on a private street, so they removed all the images from the street from street view, including the one of my house.
Google hasn’t come to our island to do their Street View thing.
On the satellite image I can make out my vehicle parked out front so it seems I was home. The sat image must have been taken at a very low tide. There is a concrete remnant of a dock support that is showing. It is normally below the water surface by a bit.
Street View shows my next door neighbor’s house. It was taken Oct. 2013. If you look at my house, my car is in the driveway, but the house is mostly obscured by trees. The picture was taken just after one of the redbuds in the front yard had fallen, but the other shrubs hadn’t yet taken over that spot.
The first time I looked up my parents’ house on Google, I was shocked that someone on the block had a pool. It’s an intown neighborhood with tiny yards. How could someone have a pool that big? Turns out it was the blue tarp on top of my parents’ garage when Dad was replacing the shingles. We still joke about their pool…
This thread caused me to look and discover that the photos have been updated since my last check. They now date from February 2014, and I see my winter planting of flowers in our big pot planter next to the driveway, plus the new ground cover just set out a month or two before that.
I’m quite near Silicon Valley and Google headquarters. They must photo-cruise this area more often than other parts of the country.
Yeah, from July 2011 to now I’ve had the dead ash tree removed and other tree-trimming done, painted the exterior, put in three more perennial beds, had a shed built and turned the side yard from a jungle into something more groomed.
Two years ago I was working on a client’s house (I’m a painting contractor) when the google car went by. Their street view now shows me up on a ladder above their porch.
I just moved into my place in April, and the street view picture is from June 2012. Amazingly, nothing has changed – except there’s no longer a baby carriage in the 3rd bedroom window. The earliest pic is from September 2009, and nothing’s really changed since then, either, except the shrubs out front were just seedlings back then.
The street view picture of my neighbor’s house is from the same time, and it doesn’t show their giant, spotlighted cross (with the American flag draped over it). I guess they moved in/got religion less than two years ago.
July 2014. It appears that no one is home. The grass looks nice!
March 2014 - I think they took it while we were on our spring break trip to TN, because all planters in front of the house are empty and I know I planted them right after we got back.
Looks like a pretty typical suburban neighborhood home. Grass is nice and green, since then we’ve been on water restrictions due to drought and our grass is less green and more brown in areas.
An empty parking lot. This high rise was just built and opened a few months ago.
I saw the google car near here a few months back: it was sitting in a low-traffic intersection while the drive was pointing a camera or phone out the window, presumably to take a picture of the big mountain.
Nothing, really. I had it blurred.
No street view in my city except for a very small stretch of highway in the mountains. It’s a bit annoying really because they seem to have added street views for the neighboring cities.
The aerial images were updated just this year. You can even see the newly repainted lines in the parking lot. The building itself looks about the same as it always has.
Ours is from March 2008, which is a good two years before I lived here. The house was finished then, and my partner Div moved in around the 29th of March that year, but you can’t see the house from the road so you wouldn’t know. The neighbour’s house has clearly just been built and their gardens haven’t been started yet, the front fence hasn’t been built. In 2008 the rose farm is still on the block a couple of doors down - that was gone before I came along. Several other houses haven’t been built yet. A bit further down there’s a yard with cows in it - they have sheep there now. The whole street is the same but different.
No images available at this time.
Not surprising since we’re on a gravel cul-de-sac in a private community with little outside traffic.
Yep, it doesn’t show anything for this address. I was able to get a view of the neighborhood, though, and all it shows is a tree canopy, not any of the houses.
Try e-mailing them again. Our last house had the address screwed up on google maps, and they fixed it within two weeks of me telling them about it.
Where we are now, there is no street view, and I doubt there will be for a while.
Huh?
If you ask them to, Google can blur out images of you or your property/family on Street View. This is in addition to the standard blurring of faces and license plates.
