Skyscraper going up next to trees and presumably a single family home, ruining Raleigh. Could be literally anywhere!

I just realized that you were the one who spent an hour looking at Google Maps and couldn’t find it. That makes your accidental discovery every bit better! :rofl: :clap:

24 more hours and I’ll share the location and a new picture! No more guesses?

I put a hint to my last picture in another thread. Hopefully the sleuths of the forum can figure it out now.

Since this went 3 days, here’s a new pic!

I wanted to guess that it was the back bar of the old Berkeley, but the photos in my phone don’t line up.

Correct on the Commerce Place for the 1st pic.
And I almost want to discard your guess on the 2nd because you discarded it. :joy:

Yes, it’s the old “backstage at Berkeley”

I suspect that this one my be challenging.
Hint: while this is obviously the back of somewhere, it’s not uncommon for folks to be either walking or driving in the back of the building. In fact, I came upon it at the end of an alley that I was walking.

is it the old Ice house?

That’s not correct. Try again.
Here’s another hint.
It’s the back of a landmark and iconic place.

After each guess, I’ll add a hint.

Around back of Roast Grill?

Nope. Remember, the area in question is quite active and one doesn’t necessarily have to sneak to get back there.
For the next hint: There’s a small surface parking lot there.
Bonus hint:
It’s at the intersection of 2 named alleys that have streetview on Google Maps.
