\textbf{\label{fig:topview}}. Iso-velocity Contours in the 4th Quadrant of the Milky Way. For the rotation curve presented in \citet{McClureGriffiths2007}, colored contours, superimposed on the xxHurt et al.xx cartoon representation of the Milky Way show lines of equal radial velocity with respect to the local standard of rest. CO and dense gas observations (see below ) give LSR velocities associated with Nessie near -40 km/s, placing the feature near or in the Scutum-Centaurus arm, around 3.1 kpc from the Sun. xxBob: put the "top_down" image above as a background to a plot with the contours accurately drawn over it. Also, the colors should match the color scale used in Figures 5 and 7, and color should encode Vlsr..xx Vlsr.xx
