Guess the City

xp lol erm any more clues?

That tall building with the clock looks a little like that one in Liverpool, but that's on the waterfront, I believe

xpost, yeah

Is that the Liver building being built? (Insert obligatory "can't tell if those cars have hubcaps" joke here.)

Liverpool indeed, it's my hometown. I liked that it was the Liver Building without the Liver Birds in place.

xp Manchester? Looks a bit like Oxford Rd to me...

yeah i was shooting for mcr, and the refuge building

That view hasn't changed much since the painting was done.

139?

frisco?

^^ thought that

feel like the car is a red herring

Looks like San Francisco, maybe the Marina district.

how would you even begin with that photo? lampposts? the off-turquoise colour of the building suggests a lowish latitude perhaps

the man is wearing a hat, which indicates this city is located in a place where people wear hats

fire escapes, light, oldish, tallish buildings, driving on the right. looks like sf to me.

non-threatening cartoon on kiddies' window blind suggests maybe some liberal influences

building looks 30s.....so yeah would rule out a lot of places

it is SF yes. martin luther king square

(i guessed before i saw where it was too - which can make a good "guess the city" candidate to see if others do the same

i would have guessed california cuz kinda 'chill', and sf cuz it's old

but it's interesting how efficient these vague associations can be compared to the more deductive methods that failed to unearth my last city upthread

how would you even begin with that photo?

criminally i admit i got this all because of gta san andreas san fierro graphics.

I thought france or belgium but that church looks almost baltic-ish. so no clue!

the spire is very balticish

it isn't, but it's in a place with some architectural influence from the eastern hansa towns

Heidelberg?
