Whose streets?
This looks like Chicago to me. I've only visited a couple times though so may not be right
Problem is any city with a good metro should have things like this I think. But yeah I was trying to figure out if I could recognize anything more concrete.
Let’s see: it’s got green street signs and signs in English so it’s probably North America. There are stairs so it’s an elevated metro. The beams are riveted which means it’s pre 1960s. That leaves NYC, Philly, and Chicago. However it’s not in the PRR style and NYC paints their elevated infrastructure green… so it’s probably Chicago? (Or I’m completely full of it🤷♂️).
whats PRR style mean?
I'm pretty sure PRR refers to the Pennsylvania Railroad Company in this context.
thanks.
