Took this picture myself, so it will not be searchable on the internet. The snow on the rooftops should give it some indication as to where it is.

Definitely Northern USA, couldn't be Canada due to the spelling of "Center" on the building. Gonna go with Ithaca, New York.

Good deductions, it is north of the Mason-Dixon line as you may have guessed, but no not Ithaca.

No, I have not. I did notice that building's name in the picture, and in a quick google search appears as the top choice with your link.

Are you officially clocking in your answer then?

Although the OP of this thread did post these as rules, so you kind of went around those.

Guilty as charged. I Googled 'Center City Place'. Not like using Goggles or other image recognition apps.

Given the obscurity of a number of these skylines (and that some aren't even skylines) and that many get solved w/o help of hints, I doubt I'm the first to do so, nor will be the last.

Give the next turn to whomever you want.

I agree. I quite often google names on buildings or google types of buildings. Other times, the type of cars/public transport etc might give it away. For example, there was a picture a while ago where the skyline sort of looked Asian but when I looked at the road, it looked English and I wondered whether it was London - in the end, someone else guessed correctly that it was London.

Also just as a reminder:
Sometimes, I (and no doubt others) copy a picture so I can then access it on my desktop and zoom in on things. Unfortunately, sometimes people put the name of the town in the description of the picture and, when that happens, it ruins it because I then have to disqualify myself from "guessing" the place. So that is a reminder, people, when posting a picture, make sure the name of the town is NOT on the description.

You're right, many people do. But you were the first to guess it, turn is yours!
