Streetview scavenger hunt
Don't think this has been posted before. If it has, i haven't looked thoroughly enough.
The basis of the game is that someone asks a question about something found on Google Streetview, and the first person to get it right then sets the next questions, and so on.
Example Question:
There's a guy in a high visibility vest walking down Dockside Road in London, England. What colour and manufacturer's make is his T-shirt?
Answer:
He's wearing a
green Puma t-shirt .
Please do not set a new question before the previous one has been verified by the person who set the question (or an unreasonable amount of time has passed since the answer was given and the person asking the question has not replied). This is to prevent several people (if we get people playing) posting the reply at the same time, and then setting several questions at the same time, getting everyone confused.

Re: Streetview scavenger hunt
The name of a character portrayed by actor Tim Curry, amongst others, is engraved on the facade of the New York Main Post Office.
Name the character.

There is a small (unattended) excavator next to a decent-sized hole in the ground in the Bassin du Fer a Cheval.
What color is it?

If I found the right place, the sign over the door has a green and white checkered background and toward the bottom of the logo, there's a red ribbon with the words 'Pizza' and 'Pasta' written on either side of a pizza slice, point facing downward, with what looks like a slice of pepperoni and some red and green peppers.
The name Frankies (no apostrophe) is overlaid over the pizza slice, and below the name, there's a fork with what I assume is some pasta hanging from the fork.
Am I close?

Just off George Square in Glasgow, there's a statue of the Duke of Wellington.
Describe the headgear he's wearing.

That's a tough one. I like the twist of using people's tagged photos.
Is it
Renoir ?

Nope. Hint: It's a photo tagged at street level, though I needed full-screen for the little photo icon to pop up.
