iHCPL Maps #33: Relocating with Online Maps 2

ACTIVITY 2:

Select a potential new home or apartment.

OK, I gave up running away to Vermont and decided to move down the block on West 24^th Street in Houston. Using Urban Living I picked out the above single family home on the corner. It has 3 bedrooms and a surplus of cats.

From this address I am within:

• ¼ mile of the Fiesta Market #2
• ¼ mile of the Texas Cafeteria
• 1/3 mile of Buffalo Fred’s Ice House
• 3/5 of a mile from Hamilton Middle School
• 1 mile from the Heights Branch of the Houston Public Library
• and just a few blocks from the #050 Metro bus route (for a cool map of your route go to http://tripplanner.ridemetro.org/)
  

All this is according to the site Walk Score.

I was a bit disappointed that DiscoverOurTown.com didn’t list the Telephone Museum that’s only 3/5 of a mile from my new dream domicile. Oh, well Google Maps found it right away.
