I haven't found it yet either. First time I meet him I was talking to him as I was washing my car. Spoke about 15 minutes and I did not connect that Dwayne was the Rock. But when my wife came down she knew right away. Embarrassed that I did not recognize him. He did have a shirt on so it was tougher in my defense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have to scan my site and GE but should be easy find. Memory says the red roof building is near gas station that is on 5th St. How about the multi-story white building at 1658 to 1660 Lenox Ave? Looks like there is an open area near the top that could have been set up as a cafe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has to be in that area (west South Beach, north of 16th) because I found the red-roofed tower at 20th & Park Ave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susanna Girl Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 If I'm not mistaken...it looks like that rooftop is right in the middle of this aerial picture. Not sure if it helps any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tallest building in the forefront of picture (also seen in the Miami Vice big screen movie 2006) is the new hotel built on The Sasson Hotel site featured extensively in Miami Vice Season 5s "Hard Knocks".

C Glide Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 I won't give it away as it is a good one but I can't resist some clues. 1. Looking closely you may see Gina chasing Phelps into the alley. 2. The pictures are very misleading, at least for me as to what direction you are actually viewing. 3. Don't drop your luckys (okay maybe that makes it too easy). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and Charlie's clue No.3 indicates Lincoln Road Mall, where Sonny dropped his cigarettes and pulled his pistol on the poor guy returning them. This place is close to where that happened on Lincoln Road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
