Someone else’s turn.
If it is ok with everyone, I think I’ll jump in for this one.
pic incoming, unless someone beats me to it.
no reverse image searching on this one, it would be too easy, someone will get it pretty quick as it is.
Something from Bladerunner or Fifth Element?
I started off with Italy but my trail ran dry 
That’s Geisel Library?
Yup.
the set of Ivanov,

someone else can take my turn.
Central Park?
Correct!
I watch too much person of interest, that’s how I know.
I’ll pass, someone else can go.
Warning: This photo has been tweaked.
Guess the place!
First clue:
It's in Africa.
Libya?
