Well, I don't know about Dr T's back yard, but, I can show you my
workplace. :-)  Not in 3D though :-(.  Go to...

http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/gallery/images/shuttle/sts-99/html/jsc2000e02752.html

and locate the DFW airport as described in the text.  It's the dark mass
in the upper left of the screen with some white circle looking things
(the terminals) between two dark linear masses (the runways).  There's a
road (IH635) that runs from DFW airport (west to east) across this
picture.  The first intersection is I35E.  The next intersection is
SH75, also known as Central Expressway in these parts.  Thw white mass
of buildings right there at that intersection contains my office.

Had they extended the photo a bit further west, I could point out my
parent's home and if they'd gone north a bit I could show you my back
yard.

I'd love to see the 3D of this.  The other 3D selections looked like
they had a bit more detail.  I could probably even pick out my favorite
McDonald's :-) :-)
