This looks great. Google maps and history merged into one. I wondered about
how we merge the old and the new somehow.
I

try to bring a spice of art with the idea of collaging like Mercato previous

But its free, it has pretty good clustering of pins as you zoom in and drill

talking about going green.
Also with it being supported by google you can sign up with your google
details quite easily.

It is a very detailed map and well worth a look.
