Microsoft's Virtual Earth - Googlemaps Clone?

[Daniele Margotti]

And what can you say about the World Trade Center?

How it is now:
http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=40.712516,-74.014839&spn=0.005756,0.00991
7&t=h&hl=en

How it was (or how Microsoft wants we believe it is):
http://virtualearth.msn.com/default.aspx?cp=40.712657|-74.014363&style=h
&lvl=17&v=1
