Power Spots aren’t on the Spatial/Lightship map, so I don’t think they can be applied here (see image below). [image] Power Spots also do not follow the same criteria as Wayspots, and businesses in apartment buildings do appear to be acceptable for Power Spots, just not single family properties, …

And yet there is some process to sort out Power Spots that are allowed from those that are not: [image] And to add to that, you can report Power Spots in the same way you can report regular wayspots, with the same options.

Yes, but the criteria is not the same as Wayspots, and just based off of Wayspot crtieria, this doesn’t meet removal criteria.

Power Spots cannot be submitted, unless they are unused Wayspots. Besides, a photography business would most likely be seen as a generic business, and wouldn’t be eligible for a Wayspot. And the lawsuit you you mentioned is for historical single family PRP, which you continue to overlook. Apartme…

[image] DTrain2002: I just don’t know if you’re fully understanding everything Judging from your non sequiturs that completely ignore everything I said and instead talk about something not related, I am pretty sure you don’t understand anything I am saying. Unless you are replying about that …
