While its legal status in Canada may still be up in the air, Google Street View has expanded into six new U.S. cities without problems. Google announced the addition on Tuesday on its Lat Long Blog. Online pedestrians can now peruse Chicago, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland and Tucson.
Besides the added locations, Google has also improved the quality of Street View imagery. Views in Phoenix, Tucson and Chicago are all high resolution, offering five levels of zoom. In cities with skyscrapers, such as Chicago’s Sears Tower, viewers can also pan to the tops of the buildings.
