From Pick Your Battles, this scene was filmed at North Beach Garage, 735 Vallejo Street at Stockton in Chinatown, San Francisco. In the second picture, that dark green pick-up truck belongs to me, the Location Scout. In the third picture, Sean Brennan (Robert Knepper)'s vehicle actually belongs to Erik Neldner, the Location Manager. The fourth picture is a behind-the-scenes shot that includes the Transamerica Pyramid which wasn't visible on the actual show. We had the jewel on top lit up just for the filming! |
