Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[drchris83]

Graz

 

[Pkrd]

Nope

The surrounding architecture strongly points toward central Europe. While the structure in the middle seems to be fairly unique, I’m at a loss as to where it might be. Hint?

 

[Pkrd]

It’s in Europe. Major convention centre.

Paris

 

[Pkrd]

That’s a crane, not the Eiffel Tower.

 

[applescrap]

Haha, just wag's, wag berlin

 

[MaxStout]

Oslo?

 

[Pkrd]

Nope nope

 

[Bilsch]

Seen a lot of crazy architecture like this in Spain so.. how about Madrid?

 

[Pkrd]

Not Spain but close

 

[applescrap]

Lisbon

Ran into the idea for this game on another forum unrelated to brewing and it turned out to be a lot of fun.

The rules are simple:

1. The first person to correctly guess what skyline is posted will post a photo of a skyline that they choose, once the person confirms the guess is correct.

2. There are no limitations on where the city is or the size of the city. There are people from different countries on this forum so it will make it diverse.

3. If nobody can guess for an extended period such as a few days, then the poster can give hints to keep people guessing, or just reveal the answer and let someone else post.

4. This is an honor system here so let's keep it fair and fun for everyone. No cheating by using SEARCH GOOGLE FOR IMAGE or looking at the IMAGE URL, or any other method.



I will start with this photo I took during a trip last month. It is in the U.S.

Would you like to take a guess? Major city, not in Spain but close.

WAKE UP! This was one of my favorite threads and it somehow died just over 2 months ago. Let's start the ball rolling again. Here's an easy one.

 

[shetc]

Cool! An actual skyline.

 

[beermanpete]

Phoenix, AZ?

 

[pvpeacock]

[JB_Brewing2]

Anchorage is correct!

 

[beermanpete]

@OnePlate You're up.

 

[OnePlate]

This might be too easy but I love the place so here goes...

 

[pvpeacock]

Looks like the UK. Very similar looking to Newcastle, but I know it's not.

 

[OnePlate]

Yeah, not Newcastle, but you're in the right general region!

 

[Bilsch]

Isn't that the Beckett bridge there?

 

[BruceH]

Dublin.

 

[MaxStout]

Southampton?

 

[OnePlate]

You are correct!

 

[Bilsch]

Guess I should have named the skyline. Oh well.

 

[BruceH]

You are correct!

Here's the next skyline:
