It's named 'waterce' so I'm going coast of England. A rocky protrusion with a fair-sized bush, two more protrusions, a river mouth. Hmmm .... Penzance?

Hint: If you recognize the arthictectural style, it is in a place that is well-known for many such examples.

Yeah, it's the architectural style of the 'historic' buildings in downtown San Diego, but I don't recognize any of the other buildings around it. So I don't think the architectural style is at all useful as a hint.

Oh, that one's easy. Tulsa, OK. It has one of the most interesting downtowns in America, if you love Art Deco buildings. They have 21 buildings on the National Register of Historical Places.

Since you took it yesterday, I'm going to guess that it is somewhere near Montreal. Circuit Gilles Villeneuve?
