    I noticed that the Nearby Places map does not update when an address is changed for a particular place. See Marz Community Brewing as an example. The map continues to show the place located at its old address, even though the place has its new address showing in the profile.

    I also noticed that the map does not display some of the recently added places (or at least it takes a long time to start displaying the newly added place, can't think of an example right now, but I've noticed this several times).

    Thank you.

    @Todd or @Mike would need to respond on what is going on with these scripts.

    The places that I've added since at least mid-November have not been added to the map either, so I suspect that BA has not recently run the database thru whatever mapping service is being used. I hope it happens soon because I rely on this feature when I travel, and I'm taking off on another pub crawl to Oregon in a few weeks.

    I reached out to @Mike and @Todd to have they check into this again.

    Any update on the Nearby feature regularly updating for added places?

    I really like to use the feature and it's a bummer that places added in the last year or so don't show up.
