my blogger friend victor goes to great length to keep the readers from getting to the answer/s of his quiz. using all the applications at his disposal, he will either remove certain iconic or familiar landmarks from the background/foreground or blank out certain words, signs or characters that may lead the readers to the answers.
as for me, i have neither the software ( i believe it is called 'photoshop') nor the expertise to ensure that the quiz is not a giveaway. so, i will show it as it is and i will ask direct questions based on the pictures.
first, a bit of information about the man after whom this road (or lane) is named.
albert winsemius, a dutch economist, was singapore's long-time economic adviser from 1961 to 1984. he led the united nations survey mission to singapore, and was to play a major role in the formulation of singapore's national economic development strategy.

on oct 23, 2009, dr balkenende, the prime minister of the kingdom of netherlands unveiled the albert winsemius lane.
quiz question: where is albert winsemius lane? (answer must be specific; 'somewhere in the west' is not acceptable.)
