The correct answer is Spatial.

The Spatial pattern is used by the writers when it makes reference either the location of something or the way it looks, in this case, we can see the two situations expressed in the phrases " is located at the northeast corner of First and Williams" and " Look for the giant thumbs-up sign across the street from the circus school"

The other options are not correct because sequential pattern organizes steps to follow, Topical pattern makes fractions of topics inside a big one and Cause and Effect gives explanations about why something happened or talks about the results of something.
