Yup, you can see the new construction.

Just curious, where did you learn of this update and how do you know the date?

Sweet. I had my car hidden in my garage at that time, but I also had 10 playboy bunnies sunning outside around my property.

Why the hell do they update it at this time of year? They should do it after the leaves are off the trees.

In my 'hood, all you can see is canopy and few pieces of street. How am I going see what that guy down the street built in his back yard?

Amen, it's hard to see much, especially in more established areas.

I just noticed that they removed all the neighborhood street views, leaving only the highways and main streets/larger neighborhood streets. I used to be able to see streets in Old Town Alexandria and neighborhoods along the parkway.

Actually, I was wrong, the street views are still there, they just don't show up as a different colored street on the aerial views.
