This picture should be copyrighted. I am sure it has never been published before now.

Looks like the Iddo end of Carter Bridge. You can see Independence Building and that other tall building (I think it's Western House) across the water. The road on the mainland side still looks like this but there's also a flyover that leads to Eko Bridge/Ijora Causeway.
