The Place
-37.825509°, 144.95638°. Under a palm tree, right in the centre median of Normanby Road, near where it connects onto Clarendon Street, South Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. This is just off the southern corner of the Melbourne CBD and thus a very coincidental geohash location.

Finding this one was quite a shock. The location is within 500m of my construction site where I work as a site engineer (and the site is quite compact), only a couple of hundred or so metres further from my office on the same street: Normanby Road (qualifying me for the Cubical Geohash Honorable Mention Award), and within only 1.5kms from my own house - allowing me to just miss the Couch Potato Geohash Honorable Mention Award. What a find!
Of course, the day is a Monday, so not the celebrated Saturday Geohash - but this is compensated by it being within striking distance from my place of work on a work day.
To cap off my geohashing luck, the day before I went on a separate geohashing expedition, also successful, to the adjoining graticule. Read about my exploits at 2009-05-24 -37 145.
