I think the photo was taken looking down Tianfu 1st Street. The angular placed apartment buildings to the left and the low roof buildings to the right of the boulevard match up. Best to turn labels off on the satellite view.

Also on this satellite image you can see the two skyscrapers that are in the mystery photo image on left.

And panning out a little more you can also see the clock tower in the bottom right.

Attempted to pin the location of the clock tower in the background of this photo.
Chengdu, Sichuan Province, China.
I think many new skyscrapers have been built since this mystery photo was taken. Since no street photos of this city are available, best is to match skyscrapers.
Global Center Clock Tower in right side background of photo is at Jirui Road.

Matches two skyscrapers on left of mystery photo after one on right is completed.
