Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[Newsman]

JMARK -- very close, but no cigar. At least not close ENOUGH.

Okay googling for palaces in Germany and Austria - this looks a bit like Linderhof Palace based on the roof design but I'm not finding a picture that looks like yours exactly.

 

[Newsman]

Yep. You got it. Schloss Linderhof
Here's a picture of that same general view during warmer weather

Vegas. From the Mandalay Bay.

I would have guessed Hong Kong but the buildings are way too far apart.

Vegas. From the Mandalay Bay.

Yup. Balcony of the Foundation Club. The view was far better inside.

 

[Newsman]

JMARK, you're up. 😀

 

[jmark]

Vancouver, BC, Canada

 

[beerlover77]

You are up Grog!

 

[GrogNerd]

should be enough to get you there

 

[GrogNerd]

and a clue: picture from the same spot, same direction, roughly 1000ft in the air. of course, with identifying labels scratched out

Verrazano-Narrows Bridge?

 

[jafo28]

Verrazano-Narrows Bridge?

Nope, but not far off.

 

[Minky]

Ward's Island Bridge over the Harlem River?

Ward's Island Bridge over the Harlem River?

You're up Minky! NYC, would have been good enough.

 

[Minky]

OK, let's try this one. It shouldn't be too difficult.

 

[beerlover77]

Ogden, Ohio?

 

[GrogNerd]

Ohio is flat, ain't no mountains. barely any hills

 

[beerlover77]

Ohio is flat, ain't no mountains. barely any hills

HAHA sorry
Ogden, Utah

 

[MagicMatt]

I think that's Albuquerque, but I've never seen it from the air like that.

 

[Minky]

MagicMatt is the man. Albuquerque it is!

 

[MagicMatt]

Righto, here we go. Perhaps a bit obscure but if you've ever been it shouldn't be hard at all. Note all of the people gathered for......something.....

I'll also say that this pic is about 8 years old, so the "skyline" visible here has likely been improved upon (looks like they're even building something at the time of this pic).

Austin, TX... waiting for bats?
