It is basically impossible to get right on. I put mine in the middle of the building...

I hit 4 meters this time. On the sidewalk, approximately underneath the bottom of the left hand corner of the KLM picture.

Check this: Google street view of the entire street, with the same reflections in the windows

I think there's an easy way to find out the right place, it needs 3/4 twitter accounts to use as baits.

You test one position on one account, gives you the distance between your spot and the right one. You do the same for one or two other accounts.

Then you place markers on Google Maps corresponding to the positions you tested, you draw circles corresponding to the distance for each spot, then you should get the right one.

With your 'right' Twitter account, you mark the spot :P

This city once hosted the Olympic Winter Games and is the 3rd biggest in Canada.

Calgary Tower - got to within 2 m!

I know, that one threw me off too...

But checking the List of most populous municipalities, Calgary is 3rd, with Vancouver a fairly distant 8th.

I can't believe that I was that far away (165m). Compare my pic with the KLM picture - almost the same! http://t.co/mzvwp7F

In fact, you need to mark the spot of the identified building not the place where the photo was taken. I thought the same at first and realized it later.
