Lily identification

What lily is this? A friend spotted it growing behind the apartment building he lives in. Ten feet tall (3 meters), he says.

Rodger,
it looks lke one of the "new" Orient-pet" hybrids; possibly "Georgette".
The foliage is very typical of the Oriental/Parkman hybrids.

What about 'Conca D'or'?  The flower looks about right, doesn't it?  I can't recall the foliage.
