Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. – Los Angeles

Image


Close to where “Agent Carter” was filmed (the Isodine Building), the crew for “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” recorded scenes for the “Todorov” building. At 2413 Firestone Blvd. scenes that took place in Belarus were recorded (S01E04). The street scenes are recorded on the Universal back lot. Even if the production had the budget to go to Zloda in Belarus, it would not have been possible… is is not a real town.

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. – Los Angeles

In the very first episode of “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D”, a bar called “Ruthie’s Skillet” can be seen (Skye makes her first appearance here). A real bar was used for filming, but if it is “Ruthie’s Skillet” you are looking for, you are out of luck. The production team dressed “Spring Street Smoke House BBQ“, a bar in North-West LA to look like the bar they needed. Still, it is a location you can actualy visit. Later in season 1 (episode 20) the bar was visited again.

Agent Carter – Los Angeles – Isodyne Energy Building

Image


Isodyne Energy has something big to hide. Lucky for us, Agent Carter (played by Hayley Atwell), finds out about this and visits the compound.
Both the interior and exterior for the Isodyne building can be found at 2525 Firestone Blvd. The building is the old Firestone Factory, which nowadays is used as…. a filming location… and a nice one it is…

Ghostbusters – Los Angeles

Image


If it is the Sedgewick Hotel you would like to visit, you are out of luck. The place where the Ghostbusters first encounter Slimer, does not exist under that name. The hotel that was used for the film is actualy the “Biltmore Hotel” at South Grand Avenue. Good luck hunting down the Slimer ghost!
