This one might be pretty easy, but the updates will still be visually worth it. Can you guess when and where in New York City this photo was taken? As always, we'll update later with the details and more photos.
UPDATE, 2:50 p.m.: We're updating this with the answer early since there's some cheating afoot! This is a section of a photograph recently posted on the Governors Island blog, which looked kind of similar to the little houses featured on LOST... the television show we all used to watch! You can see the larger image here, and we've added the un-cropped shots as well.
According to the site, the panorama was taken in 1938, and in it "you can see the southern end of the historic district with views of Liggett Hall and down onto the fairly empty landfill. Lots of early WWI storage facilities were already torn down while the building boom of the early Coast Guard years was still three decades away. In the foreground you can see a row of barracks and a playground long gone."
