Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[3 Dawg Night]

@duncan.brown The Saturn V in the picture is a replica. There's a full-up Saturn V that was used for dynamic testing (basically trying to shake it to pieces on a giant test stand) suspended horizontally in a building just on the other side of the one in the picture. You can walk underneath it, and it takes a LONG time to walk from end to end. If you're ever near Huntsville, the US Space and Rocket Center is definitely worth a stop.

We have good beer, too.

 

[duncan.brown]

Cool!! I’ll have to find and excuse to visit the Fermi GRB group at MSFC... when we can travel again...

 

[SouthBounds]

Going to need to use some Architecture knowledge to get this one!

 

[duncan.brown]

Or lived there for five years. Milwaukee, WI.

Art museum in the foreground, The Cudahay in the far right. The new University Club tower next to it.

That never hurts either! You are up @duncan.brown

 

[duncan.brown]

If they hadn't built the University Club tower, you would probably would have been able to see my old apartment in Yankee Hill.

How about this one?

 

[3 Dawg Night]

The only "Hotel Livingstone" I'm able to find via Google is in Zambia, but I don't think that's it.

 

[duncan.brown]

@3 Dawg Night nope, wrong continent.

 

[bruce_the_loon]

Found Hotel Livingstone Condominiums in Pasedena, California. Though the Macy's has gone since the photo was taken.

 

[duncan.brown]

Ding ding! @bruce_the_loon has it. The picture is taken from the Hilton Hotel in Pasadena, CA looking towards the San Gabriel mountains with Pasadena City Hall in the background.

You're up!

 

[bruce_the_loon]

Here goes, fast or slow, let's see.

Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

 

[bruce_the_loon]

Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Yep, that it be. You're up again.

[SouthBounds]

Maybe Thailand? Complete guess - Phuket?

Maybe Thailand? Complete guess - Phuket?

Wrong continent.

 

[schmurf]

My initial thoughts were U.S somewhere but something in the surroundings doesn't look quite right for that, but then I don't know every place in the states so to narrow it down some... not US or Canada?

 

[3 Dawg Night]

not US or Canada?

Correct.

 

[Kharnynb]

bogota, haven't been myself but had to sit through my mil's vacation pictures....

 

[3 Dawg Night]

Bogota it is! I was there for work last year. Beautiful city surrounded by huge mountains. Fantastic food!

You're up, @Kharnynb!

 

[Kharnynb]

from my holiday collection, photo taken in late 80's

 

[3 Dawg Night]

Google tells me that the Hotel Hessisches Haus is in Rosdorf, Germany.

 

[Kharnynb]

close, but google is wrong

 

[3 Dawg Night]

How about Lindenfels, then?

 

[Kharnynb]

lindenfels is correct no clue why google's first images are from a different town, the picture is taken from the castle ruins into the village

@3 Dawg Night you're up next

 

[3 Dawg Night]

OK, this should be an easy one.

Waikiki from Diamond Head

 

[3 Dawg Night]

Waikiki from Diamond Head

BOOM! Two minutes!

It was another work trip for me. For some reason, my wife decided she wanted to tag along this time! While I was working inland for the day, she hiked from our hotel (the building sort of in the center of the picture) up to the top of Diamond Head and back. She took this picture from the top.

You're up, @pvpeacock.

 

[pvpeacock]

I used to live in Hawaii and we used to do a BBQ dinner every Sunday night on a stone terrace someone built into the side of Diamond Head about 1/4 way up on the outside. That's why I knew the view instantly.
Here you go.
