It looks like a part of the next Millenium class ship, either the Summit, or M4.

I have to agree with Thad, it seems like a piece of a MILLENIUM class ship, especially the top most deck.

These trivia are getting harder and harder!

It looks like it will become a multi-story car park! Maybe it's your new purpose built Penthouse, Joe? (Is this a trick question?)

Normandie? No real ocean liner would have started it's life as a box, surely!

Below is a real shipyard and a real liner:

The Queen Mary - definately not a car-park!

I think it's a part of either Carnival Pride or Carnival Legend, because the picture is from Helsinki.

My vote is the new Costa ship! It looks like the already completed "Costa Atlantica". It could be the new one they are building? I don't know if it has been named yet?

It´s a section of the new CARNIVAL SPIRIT.
Even though the COSTA ATLANTICA is a sistership, the parts of Joe´s picture are not yet completed and the COSTA ATLANTICA is completed already.
The CARNIVAL PRIDE will be finished in the next months so I guess those parts are already at their place. So it can only be the new parts for the CARNIVAL SPIRIT.

The Carnival Spirit is the next to sail, so, assuming this is a recent picture, it must be the Carnival Pride. The already white hull is one clue, as are the balcony openings. The Carnival Spirit Class have French doors instead of windows, which is what those opening look like.
