    That was my first thought too, but then I remembered the Numberphile channel on YouTube sent me off on a Wikipedia adventure.
    ...

    Numberphile is great. (And I only did pass Maths for Leaving Cert - Coulda kept up the Honours if Numberphile had been around then!)

    I just picked the first City that came to mind and then zoomed in on the largest open space that I could see on Google maps...

    And yet it still ends up being viewed by someone on youtube :)

    If it's any consolation I was 100% sure I was right with Gdansk and couldn't type it fast enough in case anyone else got it before me.

    And if that's not bad enough, I even checked my phone for pictures to prove I was right when I was told I wasn't.

    More sad than idiotic but still a lot more idiotic than not recognising the words of a random song.

    Before and after the "Not Europe" hint, I was leaning towards Cambridge, MA, just over the Charles from downtown Boston. Too little skyline though unless it's waaay north Cambridge?

    I thought it may have been Thames Town myself, but as it's been up a few times already I thought it might have been one of more obscure "Replica Towns".
