Contest Details:
Know where the best city in the world to live is? Prove it and win
$10,000.

The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) and BuzzData want you to tell us
where the best city in the world is – and prove it with data and a
visualization.
What makes a city good to live in? To get your creative and analytical
juices flowing, we’re sharing with you the EIU’s opinion – check out
the EIU’s renowned liveability index for 140 cities on BuzzData. We’re
also sharing the EIU’s cost of living index for the same cities so
you’ve got some hard data on the relative prices of some of the
important things in life.

It wasn’t easy, but they've whittled the submissions to our Best City
Contest with the Economist Intelligence Unit down to a final
shortlist! Vote for your favourite contest entry from now until April
23 (scroll to the bottom of the page to vote) and help us choose who
should win the $10,000 prize.

Might want to check some of that - you're showing a TPL branch north of
the 407 ...

Hey Stewart!

As noted (thanks for the feedback) by Stewart, I've checked and moved as-close-to-as-Google-allows the pin for Bayview Lib.  The problem is caused by the addition of "Shopping Centre" to the Address in the OpenData set as well as a geo-coding error by Google.

Since you noticed it I'll leave it to you to tell google (no idea how-to myself) and the Open Data folks for the City of Toronto (is there a suggested update/correction form?)
