It’s very cool to see interesting places and famous landmarks in Google Maps, but to me it’s also interesting to see places that are important but don’t really have a fixed address. For example, here are all of the on the EPA Superfund (meaning hazardous waste sites) National Priority List (meaning the worst of the worst) that are in Minnesota:

• Andover Sites (Andover, MN)
• Arrowhead Refinery (Hermantown, MN)
• Baytown Township ground water plume (Baytown Township, MN)
• Burlington-Northern Brainerd/Baxter plant (Brainerd, MN)
• Champion International Corporation (Cass Lake, MN)
• Dept. of Army TCAAP (Hermantown, MN)
• Freeway sanitary landfill (Burnsville, MN)
• Fridley Commons Park well field (Fridley, MN)
• General Mills Inc. (E. Hennepin) (Minneapolis, MN)
• Joslyn Wood Products plant (Minneapolis, MN)
• Kopper Co. Gas & Coke plant (Saint Paul, MN)
• Kurt Manufacturing Inc. (Fridley, MN)
• LeHillier/Mankato (Mankato, MN)
• Long Prairie ground water contamination (Long Prairie, MN)
• MacGillis & Gibbs Company (New Brighton, MN)
• MPCA Perham arsenic site (Perham, MN)
• Nutting Truck & Caster Company (Faribault, MN)
• Oakdale dump (Oakdale, MN)
• Reilly Tar & Chemical Corp. (Saint Louis Park, MN)
• Ritari Post & Pole (Sebeka, MN)
• United Defense Armament Systems Division & Navy Reserve (Fridley, MN)
• USX Realty Development (Duluth, MN)
• Waite Park wells (Waite Park, MN)

Now you can get driving directions to and from your local dangerously unclean landmarks!

Update! I whipped up a Google Map of all of these coordinates together using their fancy new API. Enjoy!
