Add Local Business Data #17

Open Corbzilla opened 9 years ago

Should have a layer of data for nearby businesses. We can grab this information from Google Places, Foursquare, etc. These should function similarly to other historic or park listings, so they can be added to lists but should also include business specific info, ie. hours of operation, reviews, etc.

Foursquare API was very open when I last looked. My map code has built in support for Google Places so I'll probably start with that although using it successfully has been a bit of an issue so I'll probably look to move to/add Foursquare data shortly after.
