This is the only place for them where they make sense IMHO :)

Reason for this is that I don´t know how to obtain the information which building you´re pointing at except on mouse-in events. Will try to fix it though…

They are already stronger-coloured, the rest of the workarea is drawn much paler

+1 – suggestions how to indicate them appreciated :)
