Okay, here's our image for the monthly PhotoFlash "Where in the World" quiz.Ladies and gentlemen, take your best guess. Where do you think this image was created? (As specific as you can get... I am talking street names, people.)
And George, don't give away any hints. For example, if this was shot from the offices of Shutterbug magazine, don't tell anyone.
Let the games begin... #61641

A street in the Chicago Loop. #211175George Schaub September 25, 2003
The weather would seem to indicate that but go East.Anuraag Srivastava September 25, 2003
This looks like broad street philadelphia #211256George Schaub September 25, 2003
Jim G is very warm (for a cold day) #211443June Marie Sobrito September 25, 2003
Park Avenue South at 23rd Street? #211517Caroline Bobb September 25, 2003
I guess I am way off, but I was going to say Boston. . . couldn't even begin to say where. Also, it could be a view from the Penobscot Building in downtown Detroit when I worked on the 22nd floor! I guess I would have been looking down on Fort Street. . .Debbie S. September 25, 2003
Doesn't look like Park Ave to me...how about Lexington Ave...and if I have to narrow it down further...somewhere in the 30's? #211794June Marie Sobrito September 26, 2003
Lexington doesn't have two way traffic. #212091George Schaub September 26, 2003

York Ave. in NYC? #212975Robert F. Wilson September 26, 2003
Let me see, New Yauk..44th and Broadway...never been there, looks like downtown Grand Rapids, MI #212977Sharon September 27, 2003
Well, looking at the cars it suggest late 60's or 70's. I looking at the pharmacy would guess PA. There is bus stop benches but no pinpoint clue for me. It could be downtown Toledo or just that place in our past wintery travels that evokes that old memory, great picture!! Sharon #213620Donna R. Moratelli September 27, 2003
HI George, Judging by the height of where you are too, it looks like it may be the offices of the Corbis Stock Market in NYC.I can't remember the exact address but it looks like it may be there. #213976George Schaub September 29, 2003
I'll tell all by wednesday this week, but I can tell you all that the shot was made in 1987 and it's from my fifth floor office at the old Pop Photo building (Ziff/CBS). That's the last clue. #215460Debbie S. September 29, 2003
It's got to be around Rock Center...the 2-way street isn't an Ave like we may think, it's a 2-way street, like 42nd. ??? but that's not where Rock Center is...? 49th and Rock Center, and that's my FINAL answer! ;>) #215472Sreedevi Kashi September 30, 2003
14th St.? Possibly near Union Sq., and the shopping, but not actually at Union Sq. I notice the subway entrance. But my other guess is Houston St.- I know it's definitely not near the F's stops at 1st/2nd. Near Mott St.? (Is there a 4,5,6 stop there?) The buildings don't look like any I can recall on Houston though. Ok, these are my two guesses so far. #216375George Schaub October 08, 2003
