Sagamihara Dependent Housing Area - Google Earth Tour

[stony4321]

Thanks man. It brings me back. From 1990 to 2000 I live at two places on the housing area. Some things change like the deli to the beauty shop. All I need know is a goggle earth of the places we hung out off base. Now that would be rad.

Also would be nice if any changes off base like there was on base. For example is the 7-11 still there and the arcades, dove store, and Jonathan restraint.

One thing that's immediately noticeable is the stark contrast between on-post and the densely populated and sparsely forested off-post surroundings. As with most overseas military installations in Japan, Sagamihara was a virtual oasis of green. As a young boy, I enjoyed tree climbing and exploring the wooded areas around the base
