    I see only one or two street views. Are there more if you zoom in?

    Also how come 5th Ward isn't being shown?

    Looks like they left off my whole neighborhood. I actually saw a "MSN Live Search" truck with the 3D camera on top last week. I'm sure I'll look like an ass when that's released.

    LOL... true.. When my friends from NY came to visit me in Houston, I remember them asking me "How come theres nobody in the streets?". This was on a weekend night when we were heading out to the club..

    i used to walk to the village with my parents when i was a kid and we'd pass this house all the time, i always wondered what it looked like inside.

    i remember when they tried to grow grass on the outside, where the rocks are now, like that was gonna work.

    I've heard its a Plastic Surgeon with a lot of money who just decided to model the house after Vader's helmet or something. There is always one or two cars there. I wish I knew what the inside looked like.
