One of our internet-addicted staff recently happened upon Walkscore.com, a google-based search engine that selects all of the destinations and services within one mile of any address. Simply type in your address to find all of the restaurants, schools, parks, libraries, drugstores, and of course, coffee shops, in your neighborhood.
The site doesn't take into account hills, lakes, crime rates, hours of operation, fast food vs. gourmet, or other quality and proximity issues, but it's still great for finding new spots around the corner (I found a hardware store and realized a great restaurant was closer than I thought.)
And, our office in Lowertown, St. Paul scored a 98 of 100!
