Territory Quiz: Know Your Skyscrapers

(click to enlarge)

This is the first in a series of "Know Your Skyscrapers" quizzes, which will run every few weeks or so to test your knowledge of downtown high-rise buildings. There are more interesting ones to come, but today we'll start out basic.

Very often the dispatcher will state the building name along with the street address when dispatching a high-rise run downtown, so it's important that we know the buildings by their names.

Quiz: Match the building name from the name choices below to the letter by the skyscraper in the photo above (click to enlarge).

I've thrown in a few extra names that don't apply, to make it more challenging. First correct answer IN COMMENTS BELOW wins.

Good luck!

Building Name Choices:

1500 Louisiana
1500 Smith
Bank of America Center
Centerpoint Energy Plaza
Continental Center
Heritage Plaza
J.P. Morgan Chase Tower
One Houston Center
One Shell Plaza
Three Allen Center
Wells Fargo Plaza
Williams Tower

Prize:

big bag of fortune cookies

Territory Quiz: Tight Squeeze

READ THE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST!

This tour's quiz is a tough one. Below are photographs of three of the narrowest streets I could find in our district. Each of our stations' first-in territories is represented by one of the photos.

The question to be answered is: What are the key map coordinates of these narrow street locations?

The first person to give key map coordinates of at least two of the three locations wins. Bonus points (double the prize) for exact street name/intersection, but all I'm asking for is key map coordinates.

IMPORTANT: ALL ANSWERS MUST BE ENTERED IN COMMENTS BELOW--NOT BY EMAIL.

Good luck!

Location 1:

Location 2:

Location 3:

Prize:

Bag of Oreos.

If anyone is good enough to give actual street intersections (rather than just key map page and letter) the prize will be doubled. Either way, first correct answer in comments wins.
