With wood scaffolding, I'd put it south of the OSHA Border, down Mexico way ...
About 12:13.
Oh wait...did you say where or when?
The yellow and white curbing suggests british colonial.
The shrub suggests tropical.
The bundled up lady suggests windward side of a caribbean island.
As Prof. Cliff said the wooden scaffold suggests not Europe and not US.
The architecture says either colonial French or Spanish.
The clock says 12:15 pm.
BVI? Anguilla? Martinique?
The lady looks pretty bundled up for that though, doesn't she?
Crazy guess.... Gibraltar?
Literary reference escapes me.
Don't be preposterous on the Bosphorus;-) .....that is Sirkeci Terminal, the original terminal station of the Orient Express, in Istanbul.
They only get limited service, as the current version of the Orient Express stops in Venice these days, where you can switch to a ship to take you the rest of the way.
Ha!
Right on both guesses, although just barely in Europe, in Europe.
