This is a phrase to use when you're giving directions. Use it to tell someone what landmarks they should expect see when they're driving or walking somewhere. These landmarks let the driver know if they're going the right way.

Here are some other examples:

Drive in that direction for about 15 minutes. You'll pass a big pond on your right. After that, there'll be a stop sign.

Go down 14th street for 4 blocks. You'll pass a Shell station on your left. Look out for Montgomery St. Take a left on Montgomery and it's the 4th house on the right.
