Check out what any address in Boston looks like... (Cambridge: apartment, neighborhoods)

Makes looking for a place in Boston a little bit easier.

This is a cool website that someone just brought to my attention. You can type in an address and it gives you a view of what the street looks like. You can swivel 360 degrees and "drive" yourself down the street. It's perfect if you're looking at an apartment and want to know what the building/block looks like without having to go in person. Just click on the address locator tab at left and enter your info. For Boston particularly, it helps to include the zip code in the address box because many street names are repeated in the city's various neighborhoods.

There's a Cambridge version, which seems to be less than 100% (the closest I could see was the block over from my old block), and a Lexington version that I've not checked out. They also have lesser cities like New York and Beijing.
