I noticed some new cities featuring the camera icon on the national google map, although when I zoom in, they are not yet available.
Boston, Providence, Detroit, Indianapolis, Minneapolis, and Dallas

They still seem to be using that crappy lo resolution sub-contractor.
Dallas - low res Boston - low res Providence - low res Detroit - low res Indianapolis - low res Minneapolis - low res
The images are much brighter than the first batch of low res NY images so I wonder if these are lower res on purpose to stem the bad press they were getting on privacy issues.
Compare this low res to this hi res..

They drove on Minneappolis' I-35W bridge sometime before it collapsed. You can see the construction crews at work.

I would definitely say that's worth submitting, given the later collapse of the bridge.

I posted this info to the front page (milwhcky -- feel free to make a front page post in the future!).
milwhcky, I gave credit to you for the initial findings as well as the cool bridge view - hope that's OK.

Boston has some Hi-res imagery, although it seems to be pretty spotty. Check it out here.
