Ground-Truth Place Check

Name one place and the one thing you need to know about it. I check the actual ground, not the name on a map: terrain and satellite imagery, street-level views where they exist, public records, and where the question needs it, a multi-day watch of the spot. You get a written read: what is actually there, what is not, what the records say, and where my knowing runs out. If I never stood there, the report says so. Prior work: a seven-day watch of one Catskills ravine that found the bird was not there and worked out why; and a check of a Norwegian valley town whose square gets no direct October sun except off a mirror array.
