		That is awesome. One of the head guys that does the scenery must live in that area.

		I'm not sure why, but I find it amusing that I can see where a building has been demolished since the anime was made, in the fifth and sixth images from
the end.

		This isn't uncommon at all, actually.  A lot of manga artists and animation studios do this level of research.

		I knew it had been done for Gunsmith Cats, but thought that was a special case.  (Maybe it was, because it was Chicago...)

		It was also done for Elfen Lied; there is a similar site that compares shot of the show to where they came from. Sadly, due to my hard drive dying, I do not
currently have that bookmark.

		I've also seen one for Kanon 2006, and another for Initial D. I know I have the Kanon one bookmarked, but I'm having trouble finding it right now.
Edit: 
Found the link for the Kanon one
I also found 
two sites with location photos for Initial D, but the 
main one is now apparently gone

Not surprised, just sad.
