Airport City buildings in real life

Dormitory maybe Hollis Halls or stoughton Hall both Harvard freshman Dormitory. It has a New England vibe to it

I am officially complaining on the forum so I can have better luck find these... The castles and abandoned buildings are driving me nuts. This is the closest I have come to the House of Wax and it is wrong, wrong, wrong!

It just doesn't look anything like the House of Wax from the game. I have been trying to figure out what "wax" might refer to in this context, but none of the Tussaud's buildings I have seen look like it :-(

It looks abandoned, derelict. Wonder if there’s any abandoned wax works anywhere

Are these still required to find ?

Yes - there are still about 400 buildings to find. These are ones I didn't think we would find. But I also didn't think we would find the pigeon house

Where is this building ?

Thi

Where is this building ?

This looks to be Pidhirtsi Castle.

This is the closest I've come - an abandoned veterinary school in Anderlecht which has so many things wrong as a match and the wax museum in mexico which is the closest I've come across to matching the roof line - still horrible match

But the vet thing makes me wonder about taxidermy. So I will go down that path.

 

[Chloe11111]

Oh, look at the dome here - train station in Istanbul. Similar dome structure to the house of wax. I will now start looking in Turkey

 

[Chloe11111]

I would really love a more detailed image of the Abandoned Hotel. I may have found a match with Schossberger castle. Mostly the dome/peak that is drawing me in this direction

 

[Chloe11111]

Stalled!

Nice.

Central Square is the astronomical clock tower in Prague

View attachment 53644Good find - slightly mad at myself as I visited that last year and it never clicked

@Jenn B thoughts?

I know they won't update the look of these because they won't come on sale every again and I can't imagine they took their time with this one (5 is an odd number of columns - lol just realized what I wrote )

At first, I thought it might be modeled after the SF Mint building ... 2nd pic. The second building is the old us treasury at 1500 penn ave

 

[Chloe11111]

Haven't had any luck but I'm betting the prop warehouse is based on a building in one of the original studio areas - warner brothers, columbia, paramount ...

 

[Chloe11111]

Even the ones I don't expect to find

Triumph Hotel

Looks close enough! The stairs and railing on the roof are definitely a match. They just added in the round parts next to the stairs and the symbol on the front part of the roof. Nice!

Oh! I can't read 🥴 My vote is for the old US treasury

I was thinking that one too. There is more dimension around the windows and it has the railing along the roof
