Google Maps now with Subway Locations + Building Outlines

Ever needed to find the exact locations of subway stations? Now you can with the new improved Google Maps. I was searching for pet stores near where I work and I noticed little M’s scattered about and tiny outlines of buildings. Apparently Google has added subway station locations to a bunch of cities not just New York.

There are other resources for finding your subway around the city. (har!) On NY Turf and trips123.com are two that I used to use frequently.

Now back to finding a good pet store in SoHo.

Update: Google Maps doesn’t show ALL the locations of the subway stations. For example the A,B,C,D,E,F,V stop at West 4th street also has an entrance around 6th-7th street (can’t remember exactly) but it is not shown. I guess they just arbitrarily choose one end of the station to map.
