Does this map for you?
|
|
|
| I have an address:
12976 w maple pl
Lakewood, Co
80228
that won't map in either Google Maps on the web or in Streets & Trips
2006.
In fact the address only gets one hit on Google when I enclose it in
quotes. Yet someone told me they've been there. ( it's apartments )
Do any of you have a program that can find it exactly?

It won't map in my Nuvi 650 or in MapSource using ST NT NA v8.

Oddly, Mapquest does seem to recognize it, but ends up pointing to the wrong
street.

Nope.

It's possible that this is a NEWER address (house) that they don't have =
in
the address data yet. Also, with StreetPilot (at least older) it will =
give
a close by and similar so you can pick one may be few blocks away then
locate the address manually later, but it seems that Nuvi works a little
different (it has some advantage/disadvantage).
Also, I have only use address on Nuvi about 5 times. 4 times it gave me
the exact addresses, 1 it gave me a BLANK on a 1-2 years old new built =
house
(new address and street).

Looking at various Garmin maps, the original Metroguide maps show a "12949"
W Maple Pl at N39.71394 W105.14320. On that map W Maple Pl appeared to be a
short stretch of "W Bayaud Ave", ending at "S Zang Way". On the most recent
(CN V8) the W Maple Pl stretch is now a part of "S Zang Way". The latest
Garmin topo map (TOPO US 2008) shows a street branching from Bayaud and
going south and west called W Maple Pl. If you look at the above location
in Google Earth the TOPO US 2008 Maple Pl doesn't make much sense (cutting
through buildings and a large parking lot), but there is a smaller street
cutting through just east of where Bayaud turns south to intersect Cedar
(Google Earth only labels Bayaud and doesn't have Zang or Maple PL. I'm
guessing that this small street is your W Maple Pl.
