I've been on a street in Copenhagen that looked just like that
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Tuesday, 27 July 2021 20:59 (two years ago) link
the drain pipes all end on the pavement bit there's no street gutters = not much rain here?
― StanM, Tuesday, 27 July 2021 21:11 (two years ago) link
but little rain + quite British feeling terraced housing (van on the left side of the street?) = ?
― StanM, Tuesday, 27 July 2021 21:15 (two years ago) link
if the van's sun flap is on the driver's side, then the steering wheel is on the right side = UK

satellite dish looks to be pointing at a very shallow angle. does that imply more Northern? i'd've said cornwall otherwise, based on general feel.

Tartu, Estonia

No real evidence. I just feel that this is what I am looking at.
Otherwise, Aarhus, Denmark
Someday I will go to Aarhus

It’s a great city. I loved my brief time there.

I've heard Aarhus is a very, very nice hus.

TEC on that red box (lightbulb on top?) should be a clue. Some kind of alarm system?

I can't remember which guess the city it was but one time I ended up looking around pretty much every city in the North of England and iIn Sunderland there were a hell of a lot of these single story terraces
so... Sunderland?

It is Sunderland! Managed a lucky drop on a road with a bend in it and two left hand adjoining roads

Interesting detour via Denmark first, but good work in getting to Sunderland in the end. They do have a bunch of these single story terraces that don't seem to occur elsewhere like that

sure looks like the US of A, and a city big enough to have a bus system

feels very southwestern USA to me too

The look of the building and the fact that the lot has a number (under YES - ATTENDANT ON DUTY) suggests that the parking lot belongs to a big institution -- my first guess would be state university campus? The lower-slung brick buildings in the background work with that too.

Red white and blue piping on the windows of the shuttered building (bar?) match U of Arizona colors, is this Tucson?
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Wednesday, 28 July 2021 20:02 (two years ago) link
oh - I was drawn to Austin/Houston but not based on anything in particular
― StanM, Wednesday, 28 July 2021 20:10 (two years ago) link
Actually looks more like Texas than Arizona to me but at UT there would for sure be some burnt orange in frame. Bike rack in front of the parking lot also very consistent with university campus but maybe I'm letting myself get functionally fixed on that.
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Wednesday, 28 July 2021 20:12 (two years ago) link
hospital? government building?
― StanM, Wednesday, 28 July 2021 20:13 (two years ago) link
Sorry this isn't helpful at all, but I'm not seeing much to indicate any region in particular (except for the lack of sunshields in the cars, which would indicate somewhere less sunny than AZ to me). This also looks to me like any urban parking lot not a university one, which would possibly have a nicer, branded attendant hut?

idk though I've been pretty wrong on this thread lately
Reno seems like a place that could have a large tower next to an old single-story neighborhood.

appreciate cherry blossom going the extra mile by first covering the sign? text? on that wall with a blanket before taking the picture they wanted to post. such dedication to the thread concept!

I'm not getting any very distinct regional vibe either. It does look vaguely like some sort of government office building to me.

Key would be figuring out building and which cities have buses with the colors of the one in the background. Also: must be in a state that requires front license plates.

Huh. The Brutalist concrete building is an apartment tower for senior citizens, it turns out.

According to Google, the flag with blue, white, and yellow stripes top to bottom is the flag of Hazaristan, a region of Afghanistan, and according to DeviantArt it is the flag of the mascfluidflux gender.

That feels a lot more remote or isolated than the stadium would suggest - I'm trying to guess the sport from the chalk lines in the grass too - not something I can immediately place

Does mocking up the 'cash & carry' logo in the back there and doing a reverse image search count as cheating? If so I'll keep my counsel :)
