  • causing, with a computing device, a block view of a geographic location to be displayed as part of a user interface, the block view displaying a first side of a travel route through the geographic location;

    receiving, with the computing device, an indication of navigation within the block view;

    causing, responsive to receiving the indication of navigation within the block view, a first bubble view to be displayed at an end of the block view that corresponds to a direction of the navigation within the block view, the first bubble view displaying the first side of the travel route and a second side of the travel route from a perspective of a traveler along the travel route in the direction of the navigation within the block view;

    causing, with the computing device and responsive to the navigation within the block view, navigation within the first bubble view in the direction of the navigation within the block view;

    receiving an indication of a navigation within the block view in a different direction;

    causing, responsive to the indication of the navigation within the block view in the different direction, the first bubble view to be removed from the user interface; and

    causing, responsive to the indication of the navigation within the block view in the different direction, a second bubble view to be displayed at another end of the block view, the second bubble view displaying one or more other geographic areas that are adjacent to the geographic location displayed in the block view and in the different direction.
