Tucson, Arizona and Cleveland, Ohio are some of the newest cities to join the Google Earth 3D family. If you haven't checked them out recently, it may be time to take a trip (download a kml tour)! These two American cities should not be missed, as they have a little of something for everyone!
- For a warm-up: fly to Tucson, situated at the foot of the Catalina Mountains
- For the academic: tour the University of Arizona campus or pick up a book at The Pima County Public Library
- For families: the Tucson Children's Museum is filled with dinosaurs, trains, rainforests, and much more to explore
Fly to the southern shore of Lake Erie and you will find Cleveland, rich with diverse architecture and history.
- For the music lover: The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, designed by I.M. Pei to overlook the great Lake Erie
- For the design buff: the Terminal Tower, designed and built in the Beaux Arts style during the height of the skyscraper boom of the 1920s
- For the sportsfan: Jacob's Field/Progressive Field, home of the Cleveland Indians American League baseball team
Guys
ReplyDeleteSketchup is more that 3D cities.
Lots of us use it for other things.
Please try not to do 80% 3D cities and 20% modeling other things. It should be the other way around

Not seeing it; downtown Tucson is still flat as a pancake. Do I have to download a new version of Google Earth? [Using 5.1 from Nov 09].

Is there any way I can get permission to use the Google Sketchup models and model them in Microsoft Flight Simulator. I would do this for free and not charge anything for scenery added by using the Google Sketchup models arleady used in Google Earth. They would be freeware scenery and the models could not be duplicated at all by reverse engineering. Please advise.
