I'm guessing somewhere in the north east of the US - Massachussets or somesuch? Might be way off though. Any clues?

This is based on trees and scenery looking like it would be somewhere geographically similar to Northern Europe, but that one building and the grid layout of the roads looking American. Am I on the right lines?

If it had a highway cutting through it it would look like Concord, NH.

For such a densely packed in place, it looks a bit Day Of The Triffids. No one in the park, no cars visible on the street. Can't see what the sign says, but it looks more likely to be in Roman script, not Japanese or Chinese.
Not New World, somehow not European-looking, I'd guess India, although that doesn't quite seem right either.
xpost yes maybe Bangkok

this is the Cité Moderne, a neighborhood built in 1922-1925, by architect Victor Bourgeois: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_Bourgeois― StanM, Thursday, 14 July 2022 11:30 (two years ago)
― StanM, Thursday, 14 July 2022 11:30 (two years ago)
I had a quick wander around the Cité Moderne yesterday. It obviously has the bones of a beautiful modernist estate but it's in a dreadful condition - lots of boarded up homes, render in a poor state pretty much all over. Stan, do you have any insight into what's happening with it? It's heartbreaking.

Renovation plans are finally starting to see the light - https://bma.brussels/en/cite-moderne/
Plus also, Sint-Agatha-Berchem bought a vacant lot to build a new community center, hoping it will help revive the neighbourhood. (The vacant lot was first going to house a 5-story building but inhabitants protested and the independent promotor who had those plans left & it's from him the community bought the land last year)
― StanM, Monday, 19 August 2024 13:29 (one month ago) link
that community center news is only in Dutch here: https://www.bruzz.be/stedenbouw/sint-agatha-berchem-plant-nieuw-gemeenschapscentrum-cite-moderne-gamechanger-2023-08-24

In the United States, parenthood is often solitary, and parents are much more likely than nonparents to say they feel lonely and stressed.
