Place Map wrong

The Map for Lawton's In Long Beach, is wrong. The Address is right and if I google the Address it gives the right map, but the Places map puts Lawton's on the other side of town

  1. That's cause the map is pointing to Bay_shore_ Drive.

        Yeah. I'm not sure why it is doing that. Thanks Maxzook for adding to the Place page.

            I notice Yelp has the same map we do, so I suspect this error is on Google's end, despite their own maps showing it correctly.

            The detailed map of the correct area seems to show that the road passes under a building there. I wonder if it's a case that that's not considered a public road so isn't showing up? Or if it's confused by the building? Would it make sense to change the address on Lawton's to the address of the larger complex to get the map ballpark correct and put the precise street address in the notes?
