Um, wait. My bad... That last post was about the "star" shaped place you mentioned. Whereas the place looking like a "cross" is a part of the Hotel Pearl Continental. (I have been to there two times).

You've dne an excellent job. Please verify the spellings though, for example the word UNIVERSITY is spelled "univercity".

What you label as National museum is actually former State Bank of Pakistan. Currently occupied by water and severage board (but I am not sure of that).

Very nice ramizq1
I double-clicked on the City Railway Station placemark. Are you sure the location is correct?
Over last few days I have been looking up railway stations in Mumbai. Mumbai stations have distinctive so called "Foot Overbridges" (AKA FOBs). These are bridges you use to go from one platform to another. They have stairs which start from a platform from one or both sides of bridge. Both the bridges as well as the stairs have slanting roofs (I think) made up of corrugated steel shhets. I am attaching a placemark of Andheri station.
I found near your Karachi railways station placemark slightly towards north what I thought were some trains. Near your placemark I found what I thought was a road.
I am just curious. Do you have (like in Mumbai) a commuter railway system in Karachi? Presence of commuter railway system makes it easier to locate places in Mumbai if you have some idea where a particular place is relative to some station.
