The American Association of Amateur Astronomers has created a

List of Deep Sky Objects

(and double and variable stars) for Northern hemisphere observers living

in urban regions.

With their kind permission, we present this list here linked to the object

pages in our Messier Catalog Online Database at SEDS.
