Didn't recognise this building initially but presume it is what is now the Gaiety School of Acting. Just looks closer to the river here!

Just to note the study is based on when iPhone was introduced into individual counties in the US so there's a bit more going on here that simply saying correlation equals causation.
IT’S OFFICIAL, FOLKS. Günter Lamprecht is officially returning as Franz Biberkopf in Marvel Studios’ Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026)! This will be the beloved character's first appearance since ‘Berlin Alexanderplatz’ in 1980.
I think this must be my favourite Mitchell photo (from www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...)
