Jail cells.
Keeping them close together like that makes it easier for the prisoners, er,
residents to spy on and tattle on each other.

Hey! That's the suburb just north of Toronto. A green belt legislation was
recently imposed around Toronto to stop this sort of thing.
Worm, you're a .ca Where are you?

create bright spots in shadows like that.

Crap, I've been through there, our very own country! I'm running out of
soul.

Looks like when the "marketers" get out of hand, someone, like the gov,
has to reign them in.

Vancouver. A marginal improvement.

Oh, ok, phew! It had me worried there for a minute. Imagine a place
like that actually existing in reality!
So, then, I wonder what that section of Markham *really* looks like.
Google Earth anyone?

The reflections in the 'photo' are most likely created by optical caustics
bounced from the adjacent glass windows.
Cheaper, thinner glass can have distortions that create this, as well as
shitty fitting frames. Windows installed
to tightly can create distortion as well.

Yeah, those reflections could be off the parked cars.
It lacks some small parks with nice trees that makes
living in a filing cabinet tolerable.

Looks like a lot of places around here. Look up Fontana, CA (92335) in
google earth and I'm sure you'll see a lot of that.
