so little to go on here, but the sign in front of the blue pole looks pretty distinctive

I don't think I'm right, but this reminds me of when I was in Baltimore.

There's a blue A on those doors. Those bike stencils are definitely in use in California, probably elsewhere too though.

In this case, I recently saw that building in person and remembered it. Sometimes it seems people use different techniques than this.

did you have any good buffalo wings there treeship?

I misread this as you recognized a person outside the building

I had good buffalo wings, thanks map. There are great breweries in buffalo too—my favorite was called the big ditch brewing company.

Buffalo is one of those cities where many people I know have spent a significant amount of time because of the Poetics program at the SUNY campus there, but I have never been. All I know about it is snow, snow, and more snow.

Hah yeah my memory of Buffalo was 25+ feet of snow, it amazes me there is any bicycle infrastructure at all.

Apparently it is absolutely perfect in the summer, which I don't doubt.

I’ve never been but Buffalo to me means Julius Eastman and Morton Feldman...

That Buffalo pic might be the first photo itt of a street I've walked down (not that I would've ever recognised it).

I think this game is allowed to play a little fast & loose with the definition of a city

Oof that was quick, just recognize it out the box?

Yes, southern Europe, former Eastern bloc, now in the EU, makes sense to me.

Looks LHD tho, despite the cars pointing in both directions either side. Rules out most of Europe
― or something, Friday, 26 March 2021 11:44 (three years ago) link
LHD and EU plates would leave Cyprus, Malta and Ireland, i think. idk, maybe Valetta at a push but i'm not sure it looks like Cyprus to me.
― Scampo di tutti i Scampi (ShariVari), Friday, 26 March 2021 11:53 (three years ago) link
tbf, i've never been to either Cyprus or Malta so am not in the best position to judge.

Looking at Valetta and Limassol and neither seem to fit, the grey colouring of the high rise doesn't scream Mediterranean to me

The garbage truck being on the left hand side doesn't necessarily mean LHD though? It would have reason to be over there regardless
― cherry blossom, Friday, 26 March 2021 12:15 (three years ago) link
A quick search suggests Valetta, Limassol and Nicosia all use white bin lorries, not orange
