I spent the better part of 2 hours looking for that bus. It would bug me if the colors weren't right, and I was about to guess, based off of postcards, but eventually I found it. According to the toy version of this bus, its a GM old look bus, Corgi Classics 54010 (though I don't know if that's a name of the model or the bus). It was made by the Madison Ave Coach Company, and they had like 12 paint designs depending where they ran.
We are looking at Michigan Ave in Chicago, the Magnificent mile. Full of store, buildings and art.
