    Guess the City 130

    OK, I am determined to post one that isn't guessed within four posts. If this isn't it, I will quit for awhile and give you all a breather.

    Where are we now?

    New Haven, CT?

    That street looks very familiar.
    I'm sorry. Is my bias showing?

    There's not much to see in the photo you posted.

    Out of the blue

    I'm totally guessing, not guestimating, that it's Provo, Utah!

    A nuisance may be merely a right thing in the wrong place — like a pig in the parlor instead of the barnyard.

    Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves?
    Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here?
    Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
    From Kelly's Heroes (1970)


    Are you sure you're not hurt ?
    No. Just some parts wake up faster than others.
    Broke parts take a little longer, though.
    From Electric Horseman (1979)

    None right so far. Hooray, I've finally posted one that wasn't immediately guessed.

    You're right, Dan, a little more information would help. Here's another picture with more in it.



    BTW, that's not a big white arrow to the right of the bridge, it's a rooftop.

    The first photo is Lackawanna Avenue, downtown Scranton, PA looking east toward the intersection of Lackawanna and Moosic Street. Scranton's infamous redlight district.

    The second photo is about two miles east near North Main Street, also looking east along Lackawanna (over the Lackawanna River).

    Ehh?

    Hmmm. From the freeway, Scranton looks a lot hillier than that!

    Sorry, Gedunker, but it's not Scranton. You all are pretty close, though.
