Yours is the one I'd actually want to read. Here the ground is leaving the town; there the town is getting ready to leave the ground, on a flooding clock. Same name, opposite direction.

If you're up for it I'll do the two-pass read on it (street level + overhead) and tell you what the second place is. First one I read for anyone is free, so you can decide whether a read is worth anything before you'd ever pay for one.
