Bird’s Eye View Contest

by Lee — Sunday, 2/5/12, 12:00 pm

Last week’s contest was damn near impossible. The correct answer was Houston, Texas. This one was so hard, it actually took me 10 minutes to re-find it in order to post the link.

This week’s is a little easier, also a random location somewhere on earth. Good luck!

    There obviously a TD Ameritrade logo, and some sort of red crown, it looks to me, in the silver sphere on top. Medium sized buildings, perhaps a suburban “downtown”, Bellevue-esque.

    Bingo!

    World Exchange Plaza
    45 O’Connor Street, 2nd Floor
    Ottawa, Ontario K1P 1A4

    I got a list of TD locations, went through a bunch in the US.
    That crown logo, though, looked British, and so I started with the TD locations in Canada, and hit it after looking in Vancouver and Toronto first.

    @2: Nice! The Maple Leaf on the silver ball is another clue. (And, now that I know it’s Houston, I’m gonna find last week’s without the link.)

    Oh! A maple leaf. I think I have resolution issues…I thought it was a crown.

    I just looked around Houston (haven’t peeked at the answer yet), mostly to the east, along the water – Gawd that looks like an awful place – no luck finding last week’s locale – good luck wes!

    OK – I just peeked, and I must say, it’s hard to spot the tanks in the puzzle, as they’re pretty dark, and they don’t stand out much in the aerial views, like the bright white ones do.

    @5. Found it (using Google Earth). Seriously should’ve found it earlier while searching Houston, but the thought that it was nearer water and more rural kept moving my attention to other parts of TX / LA / MS / AL / FL.

    Is last week’s contest the first to go un-identified?

    All I need is the top of the building and that maple leaf…

    It’s the Atlantis outpost from Stargate Atlantis.
    no, wait… it’s from the final scene in Blade: Trinity…

    So.. it’s in Vancouver BC
