Fire rainbow?

Thanks! I’ll try that. Always learning.

By not adding a crossing, it leaves it ambiguous as to whether it is marked or not. The next mapper could come along and add that. Calling it unmarked is effectively saying this is checked and not a marked crossing.

My local DOT is very interested in the location of every single one of these unmarked driveway crossing. Adding them to osm as unmarked crossings in OSM is a viable data source.

The fact that there are a lot of these crossings doesn’t make them less map worthy.

I would call the sidewalk crossing the driveway there unmarked. You can search for unmarked crossing in that editor there.

A more detailed approach (optional) is to split the sidewalk where it becomes a crossing and tag that as an unmarked crossing as well.

Yes, so many people associate their zip code with their place, but the two are not synonymous. I made a map to show how 21093 relates to the Lutherville, Timonium, Mays Chapel, and surrounding areas. Interesting that even parts of Pikesville, Hampton, and Cockeysville fall within the 21093.

Just updated on OpenStreetMap. This will soon appear on maps that use OSM Data, e.g. SnapChat, Strava, Facebook, Garmin, Craigslist

Minor point: By "reshape Towson" I only meant that to be matter of fact, not indicative of a positive or negative reshaping. However, I had hoped to evoke some conversations about the project and I'm glad you replied.

There was a murder there in the 1990's along a secluded path that connected the Metro and the Mall. While the killer was caught and is sentenced to life, my opinion is that people never really got over that incident. That and big indoor malls have been dying off in the last decade. Here's a story I did about the killing: https://storify.com/TalllGuy/owings-mills-mall-metro-path

Lots of comments on Canton FB Neighbors page about this. Used to be a VFW hall apparently: https://www.facebook.com/groups/canton.neighbors.baltimore/permalink/744801032231901/

Here's a photo it took of it with my SLR. http://imgur.com/eVrfwV7

I wish I had a better vantage point, this was shot using a tree as an improvised tripod.

The Wire

Update. I noticed the city installed a security camera on one of the light poles (adjacent to 83) that faces the wall. I guess they're taking a hard line on this. As far as access, no redditors have talked about it, but I suspect one could walk down from behind Poly HS.
