It's not that predictable. For example, around my home airport, ATC uses a water tower, a bridge, and a slightly-isolated subdivision when giving VFR instructions; to get to and from the practice area, we use a quarry, a lake, and a small bay in a river as well. In the circuit, we (can) use an apartment building off the threshold of 22, a red barn under the turn to base for 04, a railroad track under the length of the downwind for 22 or 04, and the control tower itself to line up the slant base for 22 (to stay out of the way of the approach to 25). Coming in from the west at low altitude, we know it's time to call Ottawa Terminal when we're over the Corel Centre (a sports stadium). And so on.
