In Gothamist's never-ending quest to document all good things Law And Order-related—from Sam Waterston's subway exploits to Jerry Orbach's eternally blue eyes—we've come across some cool maps, including one documenting the first season of the original L&O. And now, WNYC has mapped out every location from 13 seasons of Law And Order: Special Victim's Unit.
By the looks of it, the Upper West Side and Meatpacking District are the two most dangerous neighborhoods in NYC for schizophrenic rape victims and nightclub-frequenting teenage girls living secret lives. Check it out in full above, and keep it open while there's a marathon of fan favorite episodes from seasons 6, 8, 9 and 10 on USA on Sunday. It may not fill the Christopher Meloni-sized hole in your heart, but it's a start.
