Ah, google….  My parents retired to Sun City some years ago (which
accounts for that in the link) and my brother and his family live in
Phoenix.  I immediately thought of the Phoenix area when I saw the photo
and hoped that the lakes retained this same pattern.  It was a matter of
looking for that pattern.  It was also fun to do on a Friday.

Impressive work!

I’m interested in whether you are familiar with the location or if you
figured it out from the image itself? Based on the palm trees,
xeriscaping, and pools at the larger homes I was thinking Phoenix � or
LV to start the search.�

I don’t know if is an effect of the shortening service you used, but the
link you provided is centered on Sun City to the NW of Pheonix. Here is
a close-up of the park:� http://bit.ly/1fsGxzg � (full link below just
in case).�

    Hi,

    �

    The University of Chicago Map Collection received a major gift a year ago from Nokia

    Solutions and Networks of Arlington Heights, Illinois. (You can read all about this at

    http://www.lib.uchicago.edu/e/collections/maps/news.html#nokia  ).

    �

    Only one component of this gift remains unprocessed, an air photo that we cannot

    identify. The folks at Nokia think this may be a photo of a Nokia building somewhere

    in the world but weren't sure. Can anyone help? You can access the photo through

    this "ticket":

    �

    �

    Be warned that I don't know which way is north.

    �

    Even good guesses would be welcome.

    �

    Many thanks.

    �
