In another post, now lost to me, a member commented that we can't see real people in GE. Everyone agreed the res is too low.

Zoom into to about 300 feet and turn on the Buildings layer. Here's a famous traffic circle in my city, New York, where hundreds of pedestrians with their shadows facing east can be viewed. You can also see that several people are wearing dark clothing.

Just above my placemark is an intersection showing more pedestrians in the crosswalk. The taxis, by NYC law, are yellow for easy viewing.

Zoom back out for the 3-D Buildings view.
