Looks like it could be Empire State building looking down at the financial district... I could be wrong however.

The skyline looks New Yorkish, but it's a bit tricky to tell. Are New York buses like that though?
Possibly an amalgamation of various places?

Yeah the bus does look a bit like a London bus, but its hard to tell. Its definitely not London however... The building behind the bus looks a bit New Yorkish, architecture wise...

I can't make out some of the details, but red doubledecker buses, a skyline and an ocean are also in San Francisco.

ChalcoDoror,
I didn't research 'Duane Reades' because I can't see it. But you're right, if you mean they're drugstores in
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
New York (would that be *city*?)
not Frisco.
It's going to be a loooooong (at least) 1 1/2 weeks before I get any of these cards in my hands!

A card by Violet? Have you noticed how this card does not have a signature?
Now that we know that Violet stole the cube and somehow found herself in
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
New York City
immediately afterward, I'm wondering if this was a puzzle card that she may have created.
Could these be images she took with her key back to Perplex City?

I always assumed they were taken by Adrian et al. when they were in NYC for ARGFest shortly after PXC launched.
