Thibault Adda noticed that now when in Google Maps Street View imagery, and you are looking at a specific business, you might get an icon that you can click on to trigger the launch of the local business knowledge panel. This makes a lot of sense and can be useful for searchers.

I personally cannot trigger this but Thibault posted these screen shots of this in action on Twitter:

That orange fork and knife icon will trigger this to open:

I think that icon is new, so do many other local SEOs.

Forum discussion at Twitter.
