This is Klaksvík, the 2nd largest city in the Faroe islands. Quite an unusual place, by the looks of it. These are real pictures, not computer renderings.

thanks Cirrus (a proper username for this thread)

the above camera is pointed towards the southwest of Sao Paulo, and is missing the denser areas of old downtown, Paulista Avenue, etc.

anyway, for people to locate themselves.

the big triangular park in the center-right of the photo is Ibirapuera.
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=sao+p...o,+Brazil&z=15

in its upper triangle vertex (poiting up) there is a mass of buildings then a bit to the right a rectangular green area.
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=sao+p...o,+Brazil&z=17

its very distant so we cant notice (at this resolution) the size of the buildings next to that rectangular green area, but here it is the area at GoogleMaps
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=sao+p...o,+Brazil&z=17

this is the area

One of the reasons, San Francisco is such a fascinating city.

San Francisco has to be the most dense city in the U.S. outside Manhattan.

the lowrise (4-5 floors?) density is mind boggling

At one time, San Francisco's "Chinatown" was the most densely populated urban neighborhood in the U.S. Nobody knew exactly what the population was. But in the postwar era, more and more Chinese (children and grandchildren of the first-generation immigrants) began to move to the west side of town and even out into the suburbs. I haven't checked, but I'd say the overall density of SF is probably that of the average of Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens.

There are a lot of neighborhoods and once-neighborhoods that claim that title for different time periods in the U.S., even in the....gulp, midwest.

This is fantastic. High Rise in the centre, lower but human-scaled and walkable neighbourhoods and straight boulevards, all of it ending clearly at a rural edge. I don't know anything about this city but I admire the Brazillian sense of urbanity in general and this is great.
