Pre-pinning Google Maps

When we took over the site of our micro-amusement park in downtown Los Angeles, we couldn’t get over the size of the building. We wanted to fill it to the brim with experiences inside and out and the question kept coming up of what to do with the roof?! It’s the length of the city block so we had some serious space to work with. A garden for the kitchen? A deck for headquarters? Then it dawned on us. Paint a Google Maps pin big enough that it might just pre-pin everyone’s map when they update the satellite imagery. The Downtown LA Arts District is gathering some real momentum and we loved the idea of helping folks find where it is. So we got to work.
