NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
Filming Locations —

•	Oakland, Alameda County: No principal photography was done in Oakland, but the backdrop of one of the apartment sets was somehow the Oakland skyline instead of San Francisco.

•

City and County of San Francisco: Most of the San Francisco scenes were faked in Montreal, Canada, but exteriors and a few interiors were done in the City: Macondray Lane (1801 Taylor Street at Green), Brocklebank Apartments (1000 Mason Street), Pier 29, Union Square, Palace of the Legion of Honor, Palace of Fine Arts, and Grace Cathedral (Nob Hill).

A nice view of Alcatraz from Taylor Street.

The exterior of the apartment belonging to Beauchamp Day (Thomas Gibson) and DeDe Halcyon Day (Barbara Garrick) was filmed at the Brocklebank Apartments at 1000 Mason Street.

Mary Ann Singleton and Michael Tolliver left on their cruise to Mexico from Pier 29 on the Embarcadero.

Two nice San Francisco shots from Russian Hill area.

This is Union Square, bounded by Post, Stockton, Geary, and Powell Streets.
The second picture shows Mona Ramsey (Nina Siemaszko replaced Chloe Webb) and Connie Bradshaw (Parker Posey).

This scene was filmed in Montreal on the Barbary Lane sets, but the backdrop of Brian Hawkins
(Whip Hubley instead of Paul Gross)'s apartment appears to be the Oakland skyline instead of San Francisco!

The Palace of the Legion of Honor near Land's End in the northwest corner of the Richmond District.

The beautiful Barbary Lane set was shipped from Los Angeles to Montreal for shooting. Macondray Lane (near Taylor & Green Streets) is the real-life inspiration for this area.

This scene in which Beauchamp died marks the second film released within a year in which a main character dies in the Broadway Tunnel. The other was What Dreams May Come.

Grace Cathedral is located at 1100 California Street at Taylor. Mary Ann Singleton and Burke Andrew (Colin Ferguson) are at
Huntington Park. The park and the Pacific-Union Club are bounded by Sacramento, Mason, California, and Taylor.

I don't know where the church interiors were filmed at,
but they are not at Grace Cathedral.

Mary Ann and Burke at the Palace of Fine Arts.
