OpenStreetMap
So Eastwood Mall just opened last weekend and I finally got to see the area between the huge central building (tentatively named One Central Park) and the 1800 and 1880 Eastwood Avenue last Monday after work. I've subsequently refined the building footprints in that area. Since I don't own a GPS unit, the positions and shapes of the new buildings that aren't on the Yahoo! layer are approximate and interpolated from other known buildings.
The updated data should now show up in today's Mapnik update. :-)

Awesome work.. I looked at it in JOSM (i find its easier to see it that way) and saw the car repair area and found "garmin:description=car repair" ... that's what ive been looking for, for the longest time now... how to make it show up in the description area. As i'd like to see the company's phone number and address in that field.
1/2 a world a way. Thanks for the help :)
I'll try in on my gps... hopefully it will work :)

Thanks! But I did not place the node with the garmin:description tag there. It was part of a mass import of data coming from a local waypoints group here. But glad to see that you learned something from where I mucked around. :-)
