There is a new Google Maps interface which if you allowed at some point becomes the default. There is still the old "classic" Google Maps whch has the street view peg man icon which you're looking for.
The new Google Maps interface doesn't have the "peg man" icon on the right-side of the map any more, but if you click on the map then a popup showing the closest address appears also with a "Street View" button if available.
