Spoilers/Speculation
Slowhatch:
The NBC boards are a little eccentric sometimes--talk about Rosicrucians, Masons, etc.--and the conversation can devolve into insult matches. But occasionally there's some good work. This poster has some evidence that seems to bolster Chateau's call on Baltimore (I should have been googling "battle of baltimore" instead of "baltimore harbor" all along :groan:). Here's the historical map and here's the mashup. There's some areas around the right border that don't match, but overall it's very close.
Slowhatch:
A sighting at the bottom of the page here, relayed by Enrico, that mentions the Geniuses in Paris asking for help: they had to find a "statue of someone who'd be considered a friend to Americans" (probably mini-me) and "a bridge trimmed in gold."
Slowhatch:
As for the gold-trimmed bridge: Pont Alexandre III has some gilt statues, but a more likely candidate would be the Pont Mirabeau that Chateau already mentioned (source).

The statue of course is the 1/4-scale Statue of Liberty which is located on the Siene River on the Pont de Grenelle. The most decorated bridge across the Siene is the Pont Alexandre III which is certainly trimmed in gold.
This certainly means that the Geniuses make it through the early stages of the game so one less team to consider for early elimination. That goes for the Browns and Hanlons who are spotted at Boston Light.
