Awesome product with urban land-use style colouring on a cadastral base. Well made with stitched edges for optimal longevity and styling. It has a smooth surface for fine mouse operation, but just don't Drop (pardon the pun) any small screws onto it, or you'll be screwed (finding them :-).
Really enjoy the colors of this mat. For Chicago folks, note that the map cuts off on the north side at Diversey Ave. If you live north of that and was hoping your home is respresented, that's where it ends. Sorry Wrigleyville.
Having left New York this is a great reminder of the city. It looks good and is a talking piece that let's me remember all the places I visited around the city.
