So, my most recent discovery was a site that featured 2006 aerial photography.  It was only for my town, but when I zoomed in I could not believe the detail!  I'm taking a class on GIS mapping (hard, but fascinating), and my teacher said that the resolution was 6 inch pixels!!!  You can see almost everything.  And even better, it has property boundaries!  You can click on the property and it will tell you how big it is, who owns it, and how much it's worth.  If there's a house on it it will tell you the value and how old it is.  It even includes a pic of the house sometimes!  I managed to tear myself away and explore it a little more and found the same data for other towns, but only in Conn. and Mass. Here's the site:  http://gis.cdm.com/website/
