Sadly, the building at the very right doesn't exist any more. The balconies of the buiilding in the center have been removed, too.

I dont think its leipzig or dresden, having lived in both cities all my life. This street geometry does not look familiar. I would guess east berlin also given the size of buildings, street width, material on the right corner.
East Germany alias GDR prior to 1990 is pretty sure. Tramway mentioned earlier is a good hint. While I don't KNOW, I somehow FEEL this could be either Dresden or Leipzig
Somewhere in east germany.
go for a city in eastern germany.
Reason: brand of the cars; Trabant, Lada,
the licenseplates of the cars,
the green right arrow plate at the traffic sign, the yellow sign at the opposite page of the street indicating the direction to another city.
date of photo: before 1989 as there are no other brands of cars

There are at least to trabants on the foto.
The green arrow at the traffic light is typical for (eastern) germany.
Is it possible to read the signpost on the original foto?
