You’ve heard of Alphabet City — now meet Alphabet State.
Using Google aerial maps, a British researcher has selected Empire State images that make up all 26 letters of the alphabet.
Alphabet State was created by Rachel Young, 25, after she was hit by a car in February, injuring her shoulder, leg and spine.
Young, who was laid up in her home in Ossett, England, read about Australian graphic designer Rhett Dashwood, who created a Google map alphabet by using satellite photos of buildings and natural features.
It took him six months.
“I thought I can do better than that,” Young recalled.
It took her just three days to find images of Britain representing all 26 letters.
Her alphabet was a big hit — and her employer, a news agency, suggested she do the same for New York.
“It was more challenging since I’ve never been there,” Young said. But it still took her just five days.
wow amazing!!
