Fun with google maps.

I'm thinking that I'm gonna put a pretty short time limit on this round.

I'm currently 180 hands into my poker session for the night. I'm 6-tabling the 15/30, which gets me about 500 hands/hr. When I hit 1k hands, I'm going to decide whether or not I want to stop, or go for 1500. Either way, when I'm finished playing, if no correct answers are in, I'll post results.

Or would people rather it go on until a correct answer?

My first thought too. Here is Spaghetti Junction, though:

Well apparently my session is over, regardless of what I wanted....

Anyway, here's a hint:
So far in the responses, there's one very close guess.

Did the image stop working?

[kbfc]

damnit....apparently it did. i had it in my browser cache, so i didn't realize.

i can't even load photobucket.com right now, so it must be down. probably related to all the poker sites, etc...

its the interchage of the 110 and 105 in Los Angeles.

The I-105/I-110 interchange in Los Angeles links the Glenn Anderson (Century) Freeway-Transitway with the heavily traveled Harbor freeway. This is the first intermodal interchange in California with vertical transferability accommodating cars, vanpools/carpool/buses/light rail. It has three levels of transfer facilities, including direct HOV connectors between the two freeways. The design of this interchange addressed congestion, safety, and air quality. Numerous designers and contractors worked on this complex project and saw it completed in 1993.

Well, your images aren't loading for me right now, which I suspect is related to all the other internet issues, but regardless, you win. It is the 110/105 interchange in LA.

There are a number of features visible in the satellite shot that are distinctive to me, even if you don't just recognize it by the general shape:

- Left-lane carpool offramp on the 110S. Going from the 110s to the 105W (toward LAX) in the carpool lane is like driving on a real-life Rainbow Road (MarioKart64 version). Especially stoned out of your gourd.....or so I hear.

- Train tracks for local rail are visible between the 2 sides of the 105.

- You can make out some of the bus-stop area under the main crossing.

- Going south on the 110, the road curves to the right shortly after the interchange.


I know poker is a taboo subject in here, but for those interested, Hollywood Park is just off the left edge of the screen. Normandie and Hustler are just off the bottom edge.

Btw, I'm curious: what was it that gave it way for you?

[duma]

its because im from orange county and that is the biggest interchage in southern california. so i figured it had to be it.
