I can't make out the name of the city

New Castle, but could be in a number of states.

Interestingly, the car has a tonneau cover in the back.

I didn't notice that but I should have. I made one for my Phaeton - one of the best things I have done for quite a while.

I vote New Castle DE. Their building shows the same construction and they had motorcycles too.

Nice stone construction. The masons who built that building were very talented. They never get a plaque on the buildings they build with their names on it.

They left their names on the stones.

Scottish stone masons built this one in Covina CA in 1910. The tower was damaged in a 1970s earthquake so they had to come up with a cheap safe way to fix it. The fix took away a lot of the charm.
