Best Answer

A latitude needs 'north' or 'south' with it, and a longitude needs 'east' or 'west'

with it. Without those tags, the point you're describing could be in any one of

four different places on earth.

The 'minus sign' in the longitude usually means 'west', but that still leaves us

not knowing whether the latitude should be north or south.

33.75 South / 117.87 West

That point is in the Pacific Ocean, about 2,700 miles west of Santiago, Chile.

33.75 North / 117.87 West

That point is the southeast corner of the "ConquestAmerica" building, at the intersection

of W Santa Ana Blvd and N Broadway in Santa Ana, CA.

That intersection is the beginning of the 300 block of W Santa Ana Blvd, and of the

600 block of N Broadway. From the satellite imagery available to us, we're guessing

that the main entrance of the building is on Santa Ana, so we'll go out on a limb and

guess that the address of the building is 305 W Santa Ana Blvd.
