Where Am I? Quiz question


 Share

Recommended Posts

OK - not so much a quiz, but a challenge - and a challenge because for the life of me I can't quite determine what city is in this photo! It's very likely along the NE US coast...and it's driving me nuts.

 

Here it is:

It's 10-11 years ago, so things may have changed slightly on this skyline too.

 

Can anyone tell me where this is?

This is Lower Manhattan, NYC after 9-11-2001 and before the construction of the new World Trade Center Grounds.

 

Governor Island is in the fore ground.

 

Looks like this picture could have been taken off the QM2 or cruise ship docked at Red Hook, South Brooklyn (Brooklyn Cruise Terminal)

Thank you. I couldn't quite place any building - a typical 'Manhattan' shot usually has one of the iconic buildings, so from this angle, it was just something I couldn't figure out! I did suspect something in the NY area, but didn't know if it could be some small section of NY, or even NJ's riverside...I haven't been up that way in 10+ years! Good hit on the location, as that cruise did dock in Brooklyn...so that's the likely location and angle.

 

Much appreciated, as I can now name it!
