The 4 Main Haunts
Note: These buildings will flash yellow when you look in their direction.
Vyrant Telecom Tower - Club Errera.
4C27: "4Charlie2-7 to Command; request immediate assistance."
Kat: "Go ahead 2-7."
4C27: "We're at the Vyrant Telecomm Tower. Got Hunters between us and the jammer."
Kat: "Copy 2-7, help is on the way. Noble Six I'm sending you coordinates for the Vyrant Tower. Go get those Troopers un-stuck."
Objective: Destroy the Covenant Jammer at the tower.
Location: Large building, orange sign at the top with faint 'V' on it, orange band around the middle of the building on the Southern side. The building is in the North and central-West of the area.
Intel: 3 Grunts, 3 Shield Jackals, 2 Needle Rifle Skirmishers, 2 Brutes and 2 FRG Shades on the landing pads outside. Inside, the basic geometry of Club Errera mirrors the 'Crater' map in ODST, set on Earth, New Mombasa. Ordinarily there are 4 Hunters engaging several Troopers. Killing one of the ones on the dance floor will cause the Hunter at the back on the corresponding side to move down to the dance floor.
Alternatively, activate both of the Club Errera Easter-egg switches (one at 2 trees at the Hospital, and on the roof of the Vyrant tower) and you will only have to deal with 3 minor Brutes (though they will have concussion rifles).
The Vyrant Telecom tower from the South East, with Club Errera the orange landing pads at the bottom of the building:

SinoViet HM Centre - Reflection/Ivory Tower
7D19: "Mayday, mayday, 7-Delta 1-Niner (7D19) to all UNSC forces."
Kat: "What's your status 1-Niner?"
7D19: "We found the jammer, but we're gettin' hit. Request immediate assistance, SinoViet Centre is.. *uugh*"
Kat: "You still with me 1Niner? 7, Delta, 1-Niner, do you copy? Six, I'm uploading coordinates now. Get to SinoViet Centre, help those Troopers if you can, but get that jammer offline either way."
Objective: Destroy Covenant Jammer at Sinoviet - Destroy the Covenant Jammer in Sinoviet Industries
Location: Southern central. It is a large building with a green triangle on the side.
Intel: No need to clear the landing pad with the FRG Shades on it and walk your way in: Approach from the North East, near the level of the landing pad. You should see some beams above you connecting an outer shell to the main tower. The North-most beams are wide enough apart to fit a Falcon through, so fly up into there and rain death on the Brutes, Jackals and Grunts. Remember to target the Focus Rifle Jackal first as the enemies come out of a small door on the Eastern side.
Inside, it's clear on the way in. There is plenty of ammo, weapons (DMR, Rocket Launcher & AR) and armour abilities (Sprint, Armour Lock, Drop Shield and Active Camouflage). There are infinitely respawning Buggers on the way out but these can be sprinted straight past no problem. Go straight back up the middle towards the Sword spawn and go either left or right.

New Alexandria Hospital - The Hospital
Kat: "Stand by Six. One of our Trooper Squads went silent after the Hospital got hit. I'll mark the location. Complete their mission, and take out the jammer."
Objective: Destroy the Covenant Jammer at the Hospital.
Location: North-East corner of the map. It's a very a tall and wide building with a small blue sign on the side. It's linked to a smaller building by a large curved bridge (within which the jammer is located). There is a highly visible glow of fire from the Eastern side of the Northern building. It is tightly ringed by four smaller towers linked by curved bridges.
Intel: Lots of enemies: come prepared! You start on the 3rd floor, there is 1 DMR on the 2nd floor, 2 on the 1st floor, and another on the ground floor. There is a Drop Shield and Armour Lock on the 2nd floor. Sprint and Hologram available on the 3rd floor. There are healthpacks on every level. In the stairwell it is mostly Grunts, a few Jackals, 1 Engineer and 1 Brute. If you're quiet outside, you can catch the first 4 Grunts just inside the door asleep, and can land silent kills on all of them.
In the curved bridge, jammer hallway, it is all Brutes and one Engineer right next to the Jammer. A few injured troopers will be at the end near the jammer. Grab the Needle Rifle from the Brute just before for some quick kills. There are 3 more DMRs in this area and rocket ammo on the small bridge.
After destroying the jammer, several Elite Rangers will enter the hallway, unless you guide the Troopers back to the stairwell, in which case the Rangers will stay around there after they spawn. There will be a Concussion Rifle Ultra Elite on the ground floor of the stairwell, with two Needle Rifle Skirmishers on the ramp behind him. Sometimes, an additional 2 Needle Rifle Skirmishers will spawn on the 2nd floor but, this usually only happens when you force the Rangers to stay in the stairwell.
The Hospital from the South West:

ONI Building - Olympic Tower
Kat: "Noble 2 to Noble Leader, all jammers are down."
Carter: "Solid copy Noble 2. All personnel are to be evacuated from ONI HQ. Say: 'Confirm.'"
Kat: "Confirm. Evac of ONI tower is... *ugh*"
*continues*
Objective: Fly to the ONI building
Objective 2: Destroy the anti-air Shades to evacuate the Pelicans. (shows after dialogue is complete)
Location: Tallest accessible building. Set of red-tipped spires on the top. Set in the middle of a large group of smaller buildings. It is East of Vyrant, West of the hospital and North of SinoViet. Darker tinged than the rest of the buildings.
Intel: The 6 shade turrets are laid by 3 Phantoms on the 6 nearest buildings, of irregular height, to the tower. You should be able to spot the Shades quite easily from the trails of plasma. You can hover over Olympic Tower itself and pound the positions with relative safety. Watch for Banshees that will slowly circle up to your height. You must land on the highest landing pad on the South-East facing side of the building. Just below the blue windows.
Olympic Tower from the South:

Randomly picked Side objectives
Notes: Two of these will come up, at random, in a random order, in between the 3 main jammer sites. Notable exception to this are the Buck missions: a maximum of one of the Buck missions will show per play-through.
Deeling Institute - Mobile Jammer
Kat: "Six, Covies brought out a mobile jammer to mess with our short-range. Sending you the waypoint; go deal with it."
Objective: Destroy a Covenant Jammer and eliminate the infantry.
Location: West of the SinoViet Centre. North-East of Holy Tower. Cooling towers and a series of pipes on the roof. It is on fire in its North-Western edge. Billowing smoke. The Jammer pulses a blue light every 2 seconds that you may be able to use to spot the building.

Kat: "Hang on. Noble Six, uploading coordinates."
Objective: Defend/Rescue the Marines from Hunters.
Location: DNBM Financial Tower. The building immediately East of the Vyrant tower. Criss-cross pattern on the roofing sections.
Intel: Two Hunters. They'll be too preoccupied with the Troopers to shoot your Falcon.
DNBM from the South (with Vyrant Tower in the background):

Objective: Neutralize the Elites and Engineers.
Location: The Misriah Complex is the purple topped building immediately South of the Vyrant Tower.

Kat: "Understood 1-8. Six, clear that LZ."
Objective: Protect the Marines by killing the Jackal Snipers.
Location: South-East corner of the area. By the spawn point. The marines are on the building in between 3 identical, red highlighted buildings (a.k.a. The TriSnipe Conglomerate). You should see the Focus Rifle beams from a distance, while the Troopers are still alive...
Intel: 3 Focus Beam wielding Jackal Snipers. There is 1 on each of the towers. On a ledge below the 4 horizontal, white lights. They can do damage to a Falcon if you get too close.

...contents
Jones' Enterprises - Buck, Phantom Squad Pinned
Buck: "Command, this is Gunnery Sergeant Buck, of the 11th ODST, over."
Kat: "Copy Gunnery Sergeant. Go ahead."
Buck: "Phantom's got one of my squads pinned, I need to take it out and evac my troopers."
Objective: Escort the Falcon.
Location: The Falcon begins by circling Jones' Enterprises, a small building directly North of the Vyrant tower.
Intel: You need to keep pace with the Falcon. When it stops, get within 100m to trigger it again. Lots of Banshees. It flies south on the East side of the Vyrant tower and then stops North West of the SinoViet centre. It then flies South to a small building South-South-West of SinoViet; the Takmin Mining Corp. It's about half-way between SinoViet and the Holy Building. There it engages a Phantom. Help Buck to destroy it. Once it's dead, your objective is complete. The Falcon will land to pick up some ODSTs but you don't need to worry about it anymore.

Objective: Escort the Falcon.
Location: The falcon spawns on E.S Palloc Investments, a tall building in the South-East corner of the map. It has a thick tower, and a thin tower, connected at the top, and with struts between them.
Intel: Follow it and as above, keep pace. It stops in front of the SinoViet building first. Then it circles around behind it. Next stop is the Misriah Complex. Then finally to the Nobolose Tower.

Location: The Falcon spawns on TF Sports HQ building South-East of the ONI tower, on a landing pad part of the way down the building on the Northern side. It is in between the ONI Tower and Tree-View Apartments, on the Eastern side, relative to Olympic Tower, nearer to the Hospital.
Intel: As above; keep up. First stop is just a take off right next to the building. Then, it heads towards SinoViet, stopping in between two buildings (one of the bridge linked one, and another freestanding one). After that it stops at Blops PMC HQ briefly and then flies out of the city. I encountered a LOT of Banshees during this mission, so stay sharp.

First, the Disclaimer: This list may not be complete. As they are selected randomly, I can't be sure I've got all of them without knowing how many there are supposed to be. These are all the ones I've encountered and heard about. If you encounter one that's not here, please let me know (and preferably include a clip too ;) ). If you find any typos, discrepancies or inaccuracies, also let me know. Either in a reply or in an email (you can find my address in my profile).
As is, sort-of, stated in my in-universe introduction, I originally compiled this list to help me with my attempts at New Alexandria on Mythic (Solo, Legendary, All Skulls On, Scoring and No saves). Undoubtedly, that is where it will find its main application. But still, I thought you guys might appreciate the knowledge and images as well. So, I cleaned it up, added images, formatting and style, and here it is!
Yes, some of the building names are made up by me; theres simply no easier way to refer to something than to give it a name. If you know of a building's real (Bungie given) name, let me know.
Oh, and in case you didn't realise; click on the images for the 1080p version!
Hope you enjoy!
