Either I lost a day or the time marker for posts is off. I know I answered you today Carol, not yesterday.

I think if this was in the USA, it would be covered in graffiti so I'm guessing somewhere in Germany like Dresden. It looks like some kind of coal gasification plant or maybe coal to diesel?

Ok - based on Fred's note above, I'm going to go with Landshlaftpark in Germany. I was going to try that earlier but it seemed like a long shot.

So far nobody has it.
Swifty - "Landschaftspark" just means a nature park in German. But you are closest so far.
Here is the next site (also closed) and the canal which fed raw materials to the second picture which transformed it to a raw material for the first picture:

We have a winner! My last picture was going to be of soccer fans walking downtown with their distinctive yellow-and-black colors, but that wasn't necessary.

The mine was for coal, the middle picture was of a factory that converted coal to coke and the final picture was of a steel works.

All yours, xrayman67!

I don't know the geography of Hawaii that well but Maui is a possibility.

A shot in the dark, someplace not too far from you although I would expect to see more houseboats than sailboats, Norris Lake?

Not Phoenix, but the US is correct. Go east.
