North America Updates on Google Maps

We're often freshening up the map data available on Google Maps. This
month, we've added building footprints for the urban cores of 38 U.S.
cities, giving Google Maps a better sense of scale, providing extra
visual detail and enabling you to navigate using buildings as
landmarks. For example, search for [empire state building] and zoom in
all the way to get to the heart of New York City. We've also added
transit information for 8 major U.S. cities (New York, San Francisco,
Los Angeles, Atlanta, Boston, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Washington
D.C.), as well as nationwide Amtrak coverage.
