That storefront was the only way I could center the map on that
intersection.

Sorry, it wasn't your situation specifically, just that Google
seems to assume that if you zoom in, you must want "street view" - but

Go not to the Net for answers, for it will tell you Yes and no. And

does it take to change a lightbulb.
