Happy New Year 2011

Happy New Year Everybody! Enjoy this model from the user "Google 3D Warehouse":

One Times Square is the name of the building in Times Square upon which the famous New Year's Times Square Ball drop is performed annually. It was originally designed by Cyrus L.W. Eidlitz and James C. Mackenzie, Jr. and built by the New York Times in 1904 as a headquarters for their operations. Upon completion, the 25 story, 395 ft (120 m) skyscraper was acknowledged as the second tallest building in the world.

This is included in my following 3D model collections: Around the World in 3D, 1900s, Americana

Time To Track Santa!

It's time to track Santa on Google Earth in real-time. I'll be keeping my eye on him all day! Merry Christmas... http://www.noradsanta.org/

UPDATE: Santa was just spotted over the Great Wall of China! (see below!)

Santa's Workshop

EDIT: Well the experiment was a success and Christmas has been saved by people all over the world. Santa's got a sweet new workshop including transparent windowpanes, a stack of gifts, snowmen, reindeer, flying letters to Santa, and the Aurora borealis.

Thanks to all who participated-- see you around the Island-- and Merry Christmas!
