NEW TAR commercial
Slowhatch:
Just a guess about the intro vehicles (DoubleD and Lake):
Neobie:
Could the Continental Square Faria Lima Office be the building behind Lisa and Joni in the helicopter scene?
Some things I found similar are the black windows (jutting out) framed by a white block, the triangular annex (on the left in the cap, on the right in the photo) and the teeny circular helipad on top. Also, the building next to/behind the Office is brown with a white section inserted into its side, matching the Caesar Business Hotel. In the vidcap, there's a building between the two big ones in the foreground, and it's the same one in the second photo.
Found Continental Square and Caesar Business Hotel on Google Earth (phew!) but here's multiple choice time! The problem I'm facing now is the orientation. The helipad and tower directions don't match; it seems like CBS has reversed the video? There are no helipads south of (D).
Boingo:
:jumpy: Yeah! Neobie found second helipad on mystery buiding (D). Orientation is correct, matches vidcap view.
By the way, Faria Lima section has lots of shopping centers. Daslu is only .5 miles directly west of buildings location.
Chateau d If:
Neobie, you are right on! Inverted picture and all.
Here is the shot of Monica (not with Joe) re-inverted and your building in the background.
Google Earth gives the heliopad location.
Chateau d If:
We still have to find this one of Eric & Jeremy (my guess).
I don't think it is a rectangular pad after all. It looks that way due to the low angle of view.
I counted the ribs on the protective screen that hangs on the perimeter and they are the same on each side!
