Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[3 Dawg Night]

Topsail Hill Preserve State Park has a couple of boardwalks that could match and is on the Florida mainland.

Topsail Hill State Park is super close, but still not quite correct.

 

[dirkomatic]

St. Andrews State Park?

 

[3 Dawg Night]

Topsail Hill was closer than St. Andrews.

 

[D.B.Moody]

I googled "Topsail Hill State Park," got the map and clicked on directions. I entered "State Park" and the first choice was "Grayton Beach." I Googled "Grayton Beach State Park" and looked at images. The matching one, when clicked on, was labeled "The Preserve at Grayton Beach." I'll guess Grayton Beach State Park.

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.

@Mr.Wyatt has almost six years of catch-up to do.

@D.B.Moody has it! That one took a little longer than I expected. Grayton Beach is a favorite vacation spot for my family. You're up!

 

[D.B.Moody]

I'll stick with an oceanside place. This is from 1987:

Vincent Thomas Bridge looking north-eastish from San Pedro?

 

[pvpeacock]

Bruce is correct. That's Fort McCarthur in the foreground with the red roofs and green open areas and Vincent Thomas bridge. I drive over that bridge every week day.

 

[beermanpete]

Vincent Thomas Bridge looking north-eastish from San Pedro?

Correct! Your turn.

 

[bruce_the_loon]

Sticking to the bridge theme.

 

[cmac62]

Monmouth wales the monnow bridge. googled 3 arch stone bringe with tower.

 

[Andres Falconer]

“Medieval bridge with tower” got me there quickly. But not quick enough. I was a minute late :-(

 

[bruce_the_loon]

Monmouth wales the monnow bridge. googled 3 arch stone bringe with tower.

And cmac62 has it right. Care to name the pub I erased to make it 0.0001% more difficult.

 

[Andres Falconer]

Can’t seem to find out whether there is a pub on this side of the bridge, unless it used to be where you now find the Oasis Ladies Salon & Barber Shop. But the Gate (H)Ouse and the chippy are there on the other side.

 

[bruce_the_loon]

The one I was looking for is The Robin Hood across the road from the Gate Ouse, the green blur on the yellow building. The blur on the right is an appliance shop.

Paging @cmac62 to a white courtesy phone.

 

[cmac62]

I'll get on up shortly. Currently in a meeting.
