I think it’s just a yellow blinking light, the kind that are used as a warning of a possible obstruction.

with all due respect to the many good players in this thread, i would like to read an extensive interview with cherry blossom about their approach to the Guess the City game

It could probably be anywhere in New England, how about Northampton MA

Mural shows this is a place with palm trees along the shore (unless it's a mural depicting a completely different place, which just seems too mean of cherry blossom)
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Wednesday, 17 February 2021 18:21 (five years ago)
I don't know. The vegetation across the road there looks like it comes from a very different climate. The mural seems to depict some place in the Middle East, but everything else looks very Eastern US to me.

is that a pool? sign reads something like "stairs could be slippery"?
― Dinsdale, Wednesday, 17 February 2021 19:31 (five years ago)
Looks like a cable stayed bridge in the first picture's mural, but that led me nowhere.

stairs closed
and isn't that an elevated train station?
― rob, Wednesday, 17 February 2021 19:38 (five years ago)
it's Upham's Corner train station in Boston
― Dinsdale, Wednesday, 17 February 2021 19:55 (five years ago)
thanks to rob's hint
It's not *technically* a reverse angle, it's around the corner (the cherrypicker is partially obscuring the right side of the mural/ivy from pic 1).
Definitely a smallish train station, the tracks in pic 1 lead into this building.

The second mural depicts Cabo Verde, the first mural is a depiction of Boston

Almost certainly a college campus with the football stadium the structure in front. Looks like Stanford to me, it certainly has those tall palms along the side of roads bordering big lawns.
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Thursday, 18 February 2021 16:41 (five years ago)
The red color is right for Stanford too.
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Thursday, 18 February 2021 16:42 (five years ago)
I don't think Stanford Stadium is that dumpy, although I don't think I've ever walked next to the stadium.
It looks more like Brazil to me, but I have no feeling for where (I have traveled rather little there).
― All cars are bad (Euler), Thursday, 18 February 2021 16:50 (five years ago)
Not Stanford (only one BMW amid subcompact economy hatchbacks). Looks more tropical.
