Guess the City

the tiny shack on the right looks like it says **** Brazillia

Hotlanta

no idea. three bridges near each other, midsize buildings, could be a suburb of 3/4 of the usa. shrug

I'm not sure "suburb" is how I'd describe that view

Feel like the giveaways will be logo above 'moving supplies', side on logo on nearest building in centre of pic and xxxx brazxxxx

Kind of imagine Niagara Falls would look like that if there was no famous waterfall there, just a river

Shreveport, Louisiana

Got a guess a while back from combing thru a list of US truss bridges, started there. Found some in Memphis that felt similar but no dice, zoomed out and started looking thru a few southern cities. Got lucky with Shreveport!

oh, it was "L STER BRAZZEL'S USED CARS & TRUCKS"

nice find btw

BANG! done.

I thought of Memphis, but the river was too small to be the Mississippi. Tried Little Rock. It did look Southern to me.

these are fun

Its that time of the week

Positive I've seen a Come Dine With Me from here years ago and it's on England's south coast.

Looks like UK, well England really, never seen those sort of sunken front gardens tho xp

The trash bin at 87 doesn't have the logo obscured, but I can't read the text. Maybe it's still recognizable to someone.

top left: airplane?

are TV aerials/antennas still a thing everywhere in the UK or does their presence mean we're in a remote cable-less location?

Think the bin logo is Thanet council. Have clicked around but not found anything like these houses yet.

nice one!

that's bloody cheeky to roll it back to 2015 in the street view

ah well done! how did you find the street?

Good job! I went through all the council logos of the UK (found a good Medium account that hosts them) but the crudeness of the lines threw me and I didn't make the match especially as the two separate swoops on the right look like one on the bin.

personally I’m would have had no idea where to start until the council logo was spotted. And then I just trawled the aerial view of Margate until I found a cheaper area of town with terrace roofs. When I found it I was sure I was wrong because the plants were all overgrown, jeeze. But tomorrow saw it more clearly than I.

Friday

A welcome revive, thanks CB.

I haven't a clue so I'm going to guess Boulder, Colorado.

Nottingham?

yay, we can guess a city again!

I can't, I have no idea :-)

Cool sky. At the moment my money's on South America or Asia - in other words, no idea either.

I was just thinking of this thread recently, specifically the time we had Dnipro as the city. Glad to see it revived.

Getting a Roanoke, Virginia vibe

that's a city of over 500k, maybe 1m people. roanoke seems to small.

i think it's the US though. looks like an engineered river on the left hand side.

xp
Does look like it, but this seems to be a much larger city than Roanoke.

Looks like a golf course on top of the hills in the foreground.

My first thought was Brisbane.

I think we can have a second view early on this one

https://i.ibb.co/QQ91PPT/ab.png

intriguing... but I still have no idea re: continent even

gut feeling though: unlikely to be europe, oceania, africa or antarctica :-)

Man, I thought I was on to something but it's not Porto Alegra ( https://www.google.be/maps/@-30.0927115,-51.2101043,3a,75y,330.21h,92.05t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1sAF1QipMESL6IGxD57whbfTam2H_jhPc-VtliPpBUqQZI!2e10!3e11!6shttps:%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipMESL6IGxD57whbfTam2H_jhPc-VtliPpBUqQZI%3Dw203-h100-k-no-pi-20-ya221-ro0-fo100!7i8704!8i4352!5m1!1e4 )

I guess the city feels North American but I can't seem to find a location that's just the right amount of mountainous/flat - I'm probably all wrong thinking wind turbines = sea shore, aren't I.

(Alegre with an -e) (so, it's not that)

The city itself, with its size and sprawl, looks Californian, but the hills are way too green for that. I'm not sure there's any city that big surrounded by mountains in the Pacific Northwest or in the Appalachians. So if its in the US I'm stumped on where it might be.

the grid seems too irregular for the the west coast of the US, and the vegetation seeems wrong for the PNW, but i also don't have any better suggestions.

looks like a port based on the second photo (towers/cranes? by water)
