A Complete Map To Springfield

neelm writes "If you even needed to know the names of the roads Homer Simpson takes to work, you can find out at Guide to Springfield, USA. On the site you'll find a complete map and guide to all springfield location. The map was put together mostly by watching (and rewatching) Simpson's episodes. The map is even listed in Harvard Map Collection!"

    I find Morningwood Penitentiary funnier. Sadly, it took me a few viewings of that episode to catch that joke.

    In 'Office Space' the protagonist lived in 'Morningwood Apartments'. I wondered if that sign had been built just for the movie or it was actually the name of the complex (possibly a joke by some suburban planner).

    You are also aware that Apu went to Springfield Heights Institute of Technology, right? :-) I was surprised the school sign was shown so prominently in [whatever episode that was].
