Boston Nav Sys Accuracy

Anyone try using the nav sys to get around Boston? I'm curious about how much that will help in a city that has constantly changing traffic patterns and ambiguous addresses, not to mention no street signs.

You have to keep your wits about you if you pass through any one of many construction zones. Navi-lady doesn't know when they block off a street! But she doesn't rely on street signs, so that's a plus.

What is unique to Boston is that major potholes are flagged with a huge "black hole" symbol, with the decade of their creation marked clearly. I don't think this is done for other cities where their locations can change.
