Some of the ones in Arlington are taken during summer, others when there's snow on the ground. So, turn left here when it's sunny, but when you turn left it's winter! Don't go there! Also some were obviously taken as early as six months ago - the car at my parents' house no longer exists. Pretty sweet, though!

Any idea when these were first taken? It's got Nationals Park almost complete but you can't position the little man on South Capitol because it was being repaved. Moving through GWU, it clearly shows either Fall move-in or Spring move-out as street parking restriction signs and metal ramps in front of the dorms adorn the whole campus.

Where's the love for Pentagon City in Arlington? It's like they purposely skipped the whole area...

Nice to see our Honda Civic -- with Bear Pride and Bad Badtz Maru decals -- parked on our street. *grin*

Why do people get excited about this? Google creeps me out these days... Where'd I put my tin foil hat...

Finally... I've been waiting for this for quite a while now! My neighborhood (in Rosslyn) was captured with snow on the ground... not very typical! :)

that blurred picture is at the building where there was a lot of back and forth last year where security guards said you couldn't take pictures because it was a "national security" issue. yeah, right. there are some weird blocks missing here and there. like 3rd street north of anna marie cooper circle in ledroit park, for example.
