Can anyone guess where this is?

Could be a social comment on the nature of emoticon-based expression, perhaps? Imprisoning, unmoving, cold… how odd! Who would think such things? :p

There is a massive building being demolished in the city at the minute. The fact they’ve left one incredibly thin wall (left of frame) standing is completely absurd, but I’m sure there’s some sophisticated engineering decision behind it. It barely looks strong enough to withstand a decent kick were one to somehow reach high enough, being (apparently) a layer of bricks thick with slightly crumbling mortar and a flimsy wooden internal support system that’s probably well and truely rotten by now.
