An Interactive Map of Shakespeare's London

Every year, usually in September, I spend 3-4 days in Ashland, OR, and take in a few plays at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. Truly world-class theater, I've enjoyed many superb productions there.

It helps to read a Shakespeare play before going to the performance. Easy to do these days given availability of the work on the Internet, often well-annotated. It often happens that reference is made to the London Shakespeare knew, and I think this interactive map could be quite useful in understanding the full context of a play.

Seems the map project is in an early stage. It will be a great asset as the textual information about the historic features is filled in. I'll definitely come back to it a few months from now.

Very cool! The reference to Comedy of Errors is a bit misplaced, however, as the play is set in Greece.
