[Nouvellecosse]

The first thing I saw that really jumped out at me starting at the very first picture and continued all through were all the NY license plates. I first thought it could have been part of Ontario close to the border, but there were just too many so it must be NY state.

As for the built form, it couldn't be the Maritimes, because anywhere that was large enough long enough ago to have that many historic buildings would not likely have such wide streets and there are very few places here that have semi-perpendicular on street parking. They seem to have lots of historic buildings, but few really grand buildings. And it took me awhile to put it together, but a major feature seems to be that they're stuck in limbo. The large historic building stock seems to be very well maintained as if the places are reasonably successful economically, but the streetscapes aren't broken up with modern buildings, additions, and the like that would go along with prosperity here. If the places were economically depressed, the streetscape may be still intact (probably more parking lots) but would look rougher and less maintained.

As far as the actual buildings themselves, you could find them in the Maritimes, but any place that was old enough to have that much historic stock would have much more stone and less brick. It's not that different from some of the historic stock in a new place like Moncton, but then comes the fact that the historic nature of the streetscape is too intact. In fact, it seems like maybe two or three buildings in all the pictures are stone rather than brick and that would be unheard of here. That domed courthouse building would definitely be stone, either sandstone or limestone most likely.

I would have to guess the region would be fairly far upsate across the St. Lawrence from Kingston or Cornwall.
