I thought Google had amazing maps that couldn't be topped?
That is what is seriously wrong with people nowadays. Google (and Apple) offer you the service of displaying terrain heights and poeple complain about it being not perfect.
What you see is the unavoidable drawback of that feature. Apple is hard at work to fix such stuff with Flyover, which obviously can not offer full earth coverage soon, Google offers you street view should you need to investigate that spot in more detail.
But people complain about their sense of aesthetics being hurt by examples like this. That growing mindset of ungratefulness makes me angry.

Agreed.
I had an argument with my father about the Maps. He was complaining that it was showing him other countries and states when he put in "4th and Main" as the search. When I asked him "what city and states" his response was "what do you mean? It should know."
WTF? How should it know what you were thinking? If you are too lazy to give it an accurate location, then it get what you get.
Oh, you mean like this...?
Google too puts points of interest in the completely wrong place like in this example near my home town.
While I don't think Apple maps are perfect, they have never given me wrong directions in several months of usage, while I have had the experience of Google's maps directing me to the middle of nowhere more than once.
Well, at least Apple is working feverishly on this.
I've submitted about 100 error corrections now and none of them have been fixed.

Yes working feverishly adding new 3D cities and ignoring the important things.

Same here, I've submitted about 50 or so corrections and none of them have been fixed. It means I'm no longer inclined to bother submitting corrections and therefore the Maps will suffer as a result if people engage with them less.
As a fellow European, I believe Apple will probably work first on US errors first.
Well least the London Eye looks good!
Actually germany is pretty good (not only TBT which I find flawless).people from america: We get the message maps is not too bad for you. The rest of the world is a joke.

That is all, carry on

I already started to believe in the mantra "Apple Maps have no POIs" then today I looked for some for the first time. I checked the main street in the "downtown" of our small suburb with Google Maps and got a meager 8 POIs.
Then I had a look at Apple Maps and it came up with 18 POIs for the same street.
Fail!
