I think most of that is the New York City piers, on the Hudson, from what it looks like, if it is NYC it's pre-1910, before the grand Chelsea Pier project started.
It looks like Brooklyn and the music in the background talks about old NY so it's definitely around NYC. I don't know where you got the Detroit riverside from.Quote:

Hey, all these American cities look alike. Give our European friend a break. Could you tell the difference between London and Amsterdam circa 1920?
Well, except in the tags and description of the video, NYC is mentioned multiple times, just like the Atlanta video was clearly labeled as being in Atlanta. This isn't about having to guess a city, it's about simple reading and not being lazy. This is not even to mention that Whitehouse doesn't even have a language excuse or barrier, because his English is superb [[as it is with most Dutch folks).
