I have thousands of images that were shot wide angle with fisheye, and I've tried everything I can think of to flatten the image (Adaptive Wide Angle / liquify / lens correction) and no matter what I have done, I have not been able to fix the fisheye bulge and keep lines straight. Unfortunately I don't know what type of camera was used as I have been given .jpgs. Does anyone have any suggestions?? I really appreciate the help!
I'm on Windows 10 with Photoshop version 24.3.0

One option to try is to use Perspective Warp. You can use the buildings to create a mesh then adjust.
There's no way to preserve everything (the foregroun road distortion is too extreme) but it gets you part of the way there with the trucks and buildings.

Thank you so much! Your image looks so much better than what I've come up with.

Could they be multiple images stitched together to make a panorama?
It looks very much like some of the panos i've made from images that were taken with wide angle lenses
as far as the extreme distortion goes.

Thanks Jeff for reviewing! I am having a hard time getting the details of how the image was shot, but if I were to guess it is multiple images stitched together to make a panorama.

Working with a merged panorama is probably harder to use with Adaptive Wide Angle. The way the AWA constraints are set up does seem to be designed around undoing the specific distortion from a single image taken with a certain lens geometry, as opposed to a projection synthesized from multiple images.
