Phoenix Chamber selects Wide World of Maps for Official Phoenix Map Project

PHOENIX – The people who make it their business to know where things are in Arizona are putting the finishing touches on a new map of Phoenix to provide updated information for visitors and newcomers. Locally owned, Wide World of Maps has been chosen to produce the 2004 Greater Phoenix Chamber of Commerce Map. The project includes map design and production as well as listing and advertising sales. This marks the first time the map has been produced entirely by a Phoenix firm.

The full-detailed map will use the latest edition digital cartography from Phoenix Mapping Service (a division of Wide World of Maps, best known for it’s Yellow One street atlases and wall maps of Phoenix and other Arizona communities) to show complete street detail for the City of Phoenix and adjoining areas. In addition to the latest street and highway information, the map will include schools and colleges, post office, hospital, law enforcement, library and points of interest locations. You’ll also be able to find parks, golf courses, shopping centers, sports facilities, lakes, rivers and other attractions.

The oversized 37" x 49", folded map is the only map authorized by the Greater Phoenix Chamber of Commerce. More than 18,000 copies will be printed. Chamber members and other businesses and organizations are invited to help sponsor the map by purchasing listings in the Business and Professional Directory located on the map. Sponsors will receive 250 free copies for their organization’s use. To place a listing or display ad, call Wide World of Maps at (602) 433-0616 (option 3) or visit Wide World’s website at www.maps4u.com/chamber.
