Bird’s Eye View Contest

by Lee — Sunday, 5/29/11, 12:00 pm

Last week’s contest was won by Dan. It was the Bonnet Carré Spillway, just west of New Orleans.

Here’s this week’s contest, just a random location somewhere in the world. Good luck!

    I keep coming back to Zurich, but I think it’s more resort-ish than that.

    For a nice visual texture, check out the dense, near-identical rows just to the west of the pictured site, HERE.

    The medieval city, a unesco world heritage site, and a prestige neighborhood. Parking? Who needs a car when you’re that close to everything, including mass transit? The pedestrian-friendly arcades are part of 15th-century urban planning (protecting not only from rain but from dumped chamberpots?)

    I just found out that some of my ancestors arrived in the U.S. in the mid-1700’s from Germany and settled in Bern, N. Carolina. Bern was founded by a Swiss immigrant from Bern, and for quite a while Bern was the capital of N. Carolina.

    Apparantly Bern, N.C. had a visit from Blackbeard (the pirate), but not much happened there during the Revolutionary War. It was, however, the site of a Civil War campaign under the command of Burnside early in the war – he gained control of the town and the mouth of the river rather early in the war, and it was one of those coastal inroads held by Union troop throughout the remainder of the war.

    Bern, N.C. remains a very small city today – about 20,000 to 30,000 inhabitants.
