Google Street View finally makes it to LA

I used to browse the streets of LA using the now-defunct BlockView feature of Amazon's A9 directory, but sadly they've since pulled the plug on that site. That functionality was recently resurrected in Google Maps' Street View, though it was only available in select metro areas. Now at last they've expanded it to include LA, though not yet in high res. I am now again able to check out the many neighborhoods in LA without leaving the relative safety of my darkened cubicle.



Here are some other cool spots:
Walt Disney concert hall, LA City Hall, Rodeo Drive, Sunset Strip, Santa Monica Pier, Abbott Kinney Blvd, Koreatown, and Thai town
