This satellite photo by the the US Geological Survey from four miles
in the air captures the whole of Nanty Glo in great detail. On the Microsoft
Terraserver site it can be zoomed in to a scale ratio of one inch per
100 yards. The photo above has Pergrim Hill/Shoemaker Street extending
from the center bottom to the approximate due center of the photo. Christoff
Street is so clearly seen that each house can be counted, the Firehall
and parking lot in the center of town (the triangle shape) is clearly
seen, as is the Blacklick Creek. Chestnut Street (which is the "extension"
of Shoemaker, for those who don't pay attention to street names), appears
(though it's an illusion) to curve to the right through the LaMantia block
to connect directly into Cardiff Road, which then curves sharply to the
northeast. Just beyond that curve the bright white spot is the parking
area of the Bowser-Ondreizak funeral parlor. Click the photo to see it
in an interactive form on the Terraserver website.
