Aerial Photos of New Orleans Postal Facilities |
Utilizing Google
Maps PostalMag.com has been able to obtain high resolution aerial photos of
two post
offices in New Orleans (below). The Central Carrier Station at
1300 Florida Avenue (first
photo below) is surrounded by water. In the parking lots, postal vehicles sit
in a sea of water. The area surrounding the Chef Menteur Station
at 5919 Chef Menteur Highway (second photo) appears to be not flooded, but there are only five postal
vehicles in the parking lot (we hope that's normal).
When available, Google Maps is providing aerial photos taken after
Hurricane Katrina that show the extent of flooding in the New
Orleans area. (Below, we have provided links to Google satellite images
of areas that have New Orleans postal facilities). To use this feature
yourself, go to
http://maps.google.com
and enter the address of the location you wish to view. You can
view by Map, Satellite, Hybrid (combination), or Katrina mode (not available
where not applicable).
Use the bar to
zoom in and out and pan left, right, up and down. To move (drag)
image, left click and hold mouse button, then move mouse.
