In terms of our street map, once you arrive at your hotel and
decide to eat at a legendary restaurant on your visit to the city,
you need to find it
on the map. The hotel now becomes your new starting point, or
origin. By knowing your location, you can tell by looking at the
map that you will have to travel two blocks west along Maple
Street to reach the restaurant.
