This quiz is no longer possible to update as it will erase the map displayed. Therefore some answers are now out of date.

I got stuck on the streets near the Empire State Building, because I did so many type-ins, but not the ones you put in. Can you maybe add more type-ins?

I didn't try to add as many as possible. Remember that it's the "Streets" that count not the "Avenues".

I know. I was trying to type answers such W 33rd St, West 33 Street, West 33rd St, etc.

Maybe the type-in could be that the answer just contains 33rd and 34th?

(I meant "I did" not "didn't" btw)

Ah I see my issue! I had it set so it needs to include 33, anything in between and 34 (and the other way round) but I had it so it must start with 33! Should be fixed now :)

Same for me, but when I zoomed in even further, I found that the street on the southern shore of the strait is called 'Strait Of Juan de Fuca Highway'

At least for me the map says the name of the zoo is Cairo Zoo. But I'm not sure whether there is some other zoo.

Such a great concept!

Could you accept south as well as Sør for the Svalbard question? It's rendered in English on my map. Strangely enough I apparently got it right the first time I took this quiz, according to my stats.
