Hey everyone! I'm trying to locate the exact coordinates of this bus stop. It's almost certainly located in Samara, Russia (or the surrounding Samara Oblast).

I did a quick analysis of the image to help narrow it down:

1. Road & Layout: It's a straight 2 or 3-lane road. The bus stop has a distinct lay-by (bus bay / заездной карман).
2. Infrastructure: Right after the bus stop (but before the bay ends), there is a small asphalted driveway/turnoff that goes in for about 5 meters before stopping/turning into dirt.
3. Fencing & Background: Immediately after that small driveway, there is a long brown corrugated metal fence (about 30 meters long), likely enclosing a vacant lot, construction site, or local industrial base.
4. Buildings: Behind the brown fence, there is a 5-story Soviet-era panel building (either standard rectangular or L-shaped). Further down the road on the opposite (right) side, you can see a 3-story brick/panel building.
5. Sun & Direction: Judging by the shadows and summer clothing, the photo was taken around midday (12:00 PM - 2:30 PM). The shadow of the signpost falls at roughly a 7 o'clock angle relative to the road. This suggests the road runs approximately Northeast to Southwest (or East to West), and the camera is facing South/Southwest. The bus stop should be on the northern or eastern side of the street.

It looks like a peripheral district, a worker's settlement within the city, or an area where residential Khrushchev-era buildings meet industrial zones (districts like Kuibyshevsky, Upravlenchesky, Mekhzavod, or Zubchaninovka are highly possible).

Any map wizards or locals recognize this exact spot? Thanks in advance!
