Where Have I Seen This?

WHERE HAVE I SEEN THIS?

 

Do you know where in Red Bank the above photo was taken?

Here’s the answer to last week’s “Where.”

Last week’s photo was of what Ann Ciabattoni called the “funky shrubs” in the planter outside UBS Financial Services at 140 Broad Street.

Some sharp-eyed wheresters like Stu Freidlin used the reflection of the buildings across the street to identify the location. Amanda Gebhardt recognized them as the plastic plants right outside her office. (We hope they at least use real money to pay you, Amanda). One person incorrectly guessed the photo was taken of the Golf Den on East Front Street, although they also have fake greens in there, too. 

And quite a few people were able to answer our bonus question asking what Radiohead song pops into our heads when we walk by. Yes! “Fake Plastic Trees!”
