Google Street View in Montréal? (18)

September 13th, 2007 · by Heri · Technology

For all Google fans in Montréal, it seems the Internet giant had staff roaming around Montréal to collect photographs of streets and avenues. The data will then be integrated into Google Maps, allowing users to visit streets in 3D. They previously made the feature avalaible in San Francisco and New York, then extended the service to major cities in the US. I picked the story on Technaute and it seems it was confirmed the same day by another “witness” on a street downtown.

I am quite surprised at the news, as Google don’t even have an office in Montréal. Well, they do have a virtual office and a postal box at 1000, de la Gauchetière, and sent interview proposals to Montréalers, but that doesn’t count.
