  this looks like Venice?

• Kristi (LOC P&P) said:

  Harry Angstrom: It does look like this might be Venice, though it's quite indistinct. The campanile of St. Mark's and St. Mark's do appear to be the tower and domes visible in the background. Thanks for the comment!

  "Good progress is being made with the hydro-aeroplane station which the Italian government is establishing in Venice. Commander Ginocchio will be in charge . . . . Six machines have been purchased in France for the station." -- Flight, November 30, 1912: www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1912/1912 - 1121.html

  Woolworth Building is under construction, seems to be about the same state as this photo. Commenter there says it was completed in April, 1913, so this must be at least a few months before that date... late 1912?
