Contrast with overall population and overall pop growth maps, and you'll see why counties like Montgomery are declaring nightlife (among other youth-friendly things) to be a policy priority.
D.C., Arlington, and Alexandria were aggregated for clarity
Nice vintage map. You can never have too many maps.
I'm uploading scans from 2009. I'll have to dig around to find the sources for some of these bits.
Both Wairakei Resort Hotel Taupo and Chateau Tongariro Hotel Mt Ruapehu are centrally located in North Island, New Zealand.
This would have resolved the conflicts between Southern Pacific trains and 4th Street traffic by building a bridge between Brannan and Berry Streets. Instead, the rail lines were cut back to the current Caltrain station at 4th and King Street.
Map shows how Federal Patent and Tradmark offices anchor a TOD project at an infill site between two metro stations. Each station is about 1/3 a mile from the center of the project. I have been told that even at that distance the Patent ofices have a 50% transit mode share.

This map was created after the trip was over. The only pre-objectives of the trip were whales and astronomy. I hadn't even set myself duration or distance limitations. As it turned out, in 19 days I drove 8,856 kms (5,508 miles). The photos that follow are a record of the things I saw on the trip.
Saturday night my brother took advantage of me being really high and persuaded me to enter an orienteering competition the following afternoon.
So on sunday we both joined our parents - lifelong orienteering enthusiasts - and went all together to the event. Haven't been with a map and compass for at least ten years, I felt a bit strange in a starting corridor but once i went in a forest I was surprised how pleasant it was. Though my thirty years older father beat us with ease, I enjoyed that hour in a forest so much as well as meeting other club members who I haven't seen for so long.
Great afternoon, thanks bro!
