It is a subscription based service. You may find access through your local(big city) library or university. I've seen a good number of older posts on a few forums re: trial subscriptions being offered, but that seems to be a thing of the past.

Someone was about to give me access to the maps through their institution but then realized that by doing so would have basically given me the "keys to the kingdom" so it never happened.

Go to your public library's website or go there in person. They should have access to it.

The reason these pieces no longer work is, they were not intended to be free access. Someone from Sanborn probably did a search a long time ago, saw people were giving free access, and beefed up security. From what I can tell from reading this thread, you have to have some sort of institutional access. What this means precisely, I'm not sure. College or Library maybe?

I have found if you go to your local library and get a card you can access your library's online database and sanborn maps will be there. Does anyone know where the maps that were removed from the database went? Anything old on A.C.O.E. land is not there...
