New Google Earth Models

It has been awhile since I have done one of these at all, but I have now finished and submitted my first New Zealand Google Earth Model. It is of a small building that was originally a fire station. You can read more about it on its page in the Google Warehouse. I actually started another model first, but it is very complicated and will probably take another day or two to complete. It is of the former Ponsonby post office - a very iconic building at the top of Ponsonby Road that basically represents the whole neighborhood. Below is a work-in-progess pic.
























Typically it takes Google about two weeks to approve new models. They can then be found "live" on Google Earth, just by looking where the building should be, with the buildings layer enabled. I have about 30 of these in the downtown Savannah area. You can find them all here.

Perhaps another entry tonight - heading off to the Chinese Lantern Festival in Albert Park.
