Google streetview of Pegasus Museum is GONE! (pizzagate)

submitted ago by twistedmac11

The post made here reminded me of a previous post I made about Pegasus Museum here.

 

I wanted to try to see if it would be feasible to move kids from Pegasus to a port/dock (per @quantokitty's post here, so I decided to pull Pegasus Museum up on Google Maps. When I did that, I noticed that the original street view (from the alley in front of Pegasus) is GONE! Streetview now pulls up the townhouses on the other side of Pegasus (where the word "Kids" can be seen spray painted on the wall next to the sidewalk), NOT the alley view of the actual Pegasus museum building:

I tried to loop back around to the Pegasus building by "walking" around Trolley Park and down the alley way, but it will only let me go so far. Is it normal for entire streets to just go missing off of Google Streetview....? Am I going crazy?

 

EDIT: I was able to drag the yellow Google maps man down to the alley in front of Pegasus, and streetview worked that way. However, doing a Google Maps search for Pegasus still brings up the wrong address in street view, and I am still unable to "walk" around Trolley Park to it.

yes, my mother has a house a neighborhood with a judge, her house (the judge's) on google is blocked by trees that do not exist irl.

Weird. How is that even possible....? Don't they just drive around in a van and take pictures, essentially?

If you're somebody "important" you get your lawyer to contact Google in writing and demand that they remove the building you don't want to appear on Google Maps or Google Streetview.

If Google staff decide to honor your request, they edit the maps & streetview elements to delete (actually, cover over) the stuff that said "important person" dosn't want Joe Schmos like you to be able to see.

and I guess we all know how important james is, right!

I think they edit it after. the trees have weird edges like a very bad photoshop job.

i don't want to expose the address of your mother's house but could you screenshot the photoshopped trees. i would love to see an example of this.

you'd need to be able to drive by to compare to real life, I assumed that this is the case for all judges, officials, etc?

That is so weird. I've heard of people having their houses blurred out from street view, but never of the images themselves being altered. That's really interesting.

I saw my friend's house on one of those sites that gives you an estimate of what your house is worth and I had to laugh. It was below what it should be, because there is a huge fir tree in front. I told her don't worry, how can they tell if it is totally blocked? The company was in another state, so, what gives? Crazy. I don't get it There is a lot of crazy stuff on the net.Especially with Google. When you look up something on Wiki now, you have to wonder, has it been played with?
