Find the Building: Solve the Clues & Show the Map!

[wolram]

Any one want to play a game, the rules are simple some one gives some clues then one has to find the building at that point, you must show you have found it by positing the google map image off the building.
Try this.
It is in Warwickshire England
It moves in the wind
A box one keeps valuables in
Part of Her
A heavy weight
If you solve the clues you go next.
This one should be easy

Just FYI we had a long thread on exactly this some time back. I think it just petered out after a while. Maybe you'll get it going again.

EDIT: oh, wait. That thread was based on a picture of each building, not a description.

It is not the answer phinds

 

[ProfuselyQuarky]

Is it the Chesterton Windmill? It fits the first 2 clues, but I'm not sure about the rest. I don't even know if it counts as a building

Ah. I misunderstood your comment. Thought you had changed your mind and decided to go with pictures.

[Sophia]

This should be easy-peasy

All roads lead there
a place of amusement
a place of suffering
witnessed history
now depicted on a coin

[ProfuselyQuarky]

Oh, that's okay, @Sophia, I didn't even realize that it was my turn **Here we go:

It's located in Southern California,
On top of a hill,
Near a big white sign,
Let's you see far, far away

**My apologies for my inability to muster up a poetic bunch of clues. I hope I didn't give too much away.

do you mean this?

 

[ProfuselyQuarky]

do you mean this?

Not that . . . something very near that sign, though.

(something more appropriate for PF )

this? :)

 

[ProfuselyQuarky]

No . . .

Okay, so one of my clues was "Let's you see far, far away" and then I also mentioned that it's "more appropriate for PF". Here's another thing: when I said "near" I meant that it was within the same park. Does this help?

 

[wolram]

Is it the Giffith observatory, sorry i can not find an image

 

[ProfuselyQuarky]

Right, Wolram, you got it There was really no image for it? Wow, that place it supposed to be a landmark.

 

[wolram]

Hmm, i wish i was wrong now i have to think of another place

 

[ProfuselyQuarky]

Hmm, i wish i was wrong now i have to think of another place

You have the entire world at your disposal. I'm sure you'll think of something

 

[wolram]

Okay, this place is a horse race in dear baby England
It is noted to be crooked on top like Al Capone
It is a place where people go once a week

Is it this?

My logic:
Horse race in dear baby England is a reference to Derbyshire, England.
Has a crooked spire.
Some people go to church once a week.

Well done i did not think that was easy.

 

[ProfuselyQuarky]

@collinsmark It's your turn now

 

[collinsmark]

• There is a city. Some have called it big and others think it's easy. Perhaps it's both.
• Within the city is a neighborhood. If Blanche had exactly one grandparent from France, this neighborhood's name would be that part of Blanche.
  
• Within the neighborhood is an outdoor place, a 2-dimensional cube, so to speak.
  
• It shares part of its name (no family relation) with the surname of a king of sorts.
  
• This king is the king of something, where this something goes by another name for a sugary soda drink, and is the sound a balloon makes when it bursts.

Where is this place?

 

[wolram]

Heck this is a tough one collinsmark, i have parts of it but the rest ?

 

[wolram]

Is this it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Orleans_Square

Close, very close, but no cigar.

And when I say close I don't mean geographically close. It's not, technically, geographically that close. (Same country, but totally different region [your guess was a place in Anaheim, California]. This thread is ultimately a google maps thing, remember, so I figure location is of utmost importance.)

But it is conceptually close.
