Dadrian Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Here are the two locations from the glossary for this ep:Railway bridge between NW36th Street and NW South River Drive (crime scene and water body) Jose Marti Park 351 SW 4 Street at Miami River (Tubbs and Valerie take a walk, while shooting this scene temperature in Miami was down to 27F/-3C!) These others may have been discussed somewhere else before, but I couldn't find it:I believe the party house is the hose from Evan. The entrance looks very similar, except that the door isn't red. Can anyone verify this?Also, David's apartment (interior and exterior) appears to be the Atlantis Building from the opening montage ("Olivia Brown" moment), Hit List, and Viking Bikers from Hell, to name a few. Check out the columns when Crockett and Tubbs drive up at the end. Also, the city view behind David during the backgammon scene is definitely from a high-rise residence, and the rails look good for it, too. Also, the interior is very similar to the room shown in Viking Bikers when they find the dude wrapped and tied up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadrian Posted September 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 ok now i think i'm wrong about the party house. i watched "lend me an ear" last night, which is definitely the evan house. i don't remember the stairs being right by the door in Rites of Passage, as they are in the evan house.does anyone know which house this is in rites of passage?this current pic of the evan house makes it appear that the glass blocks on the right have been covered with stucco say it ain't so!!

airtommy Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Some interesting mysteries, no doubt. I'm not very good at house interiors. It sure looks like a familiar house, but that can be deceiving since there are so many modern houses in Miami.The door in Rites is a single door (with an odd hinge that is not completely at the edge of the door - notice how it swings open), whereas the Evan house has a double-door. The Rites house has a curved glass brick wall to the left of the door when standing outside facing the door. That's our main clue. The background when David plays backgammon tells us this is not in Miami Beach. There aren't THAT many condo towers on mainland Miami that have been around for 25+ years. I wouldn't be surprised if it is on Brickell Key or Brickell Avenue. The early scene in which Switek & Zito repair the Bug Van was filmed in the Greenwich Studios parking lot. I marked the spot here: LINKWhen Valerie parks her car at David Trayner's place, the entrance doesn't quite match up to the Atlantis. In Hit List, you can see the columns are on steps. When Valerie walks in, she gets out of the car and walks in without climbing steps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie Rich Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Location Correction -Evidence from the episode DVD and photos taken at the shooting location reveal the scene of the Dead Body Recovery to be:Boatyard located at 3900 NW North River DriveThis boatyard is located adjacent to the railway bridge at 3870 NW North River Drive, and is separated from the bridge and the railroad by a chain link fence, still present today. This boatyard is also the location of the final battle between Crockett and Reb in Viking Bikers From Hell. The evidence from the DVD that reveals this location is the slow camera pan from the bridge structure, over to the narrow strip of land bordered on the east by the chain link fence, and on the west by a small inlet carved out of the boatyard property, visible here:The camera pans from the bridge to the boatyard property:The chain link fence between the boatyard and the railroad is now visible in the upper right:The fence is visible again, with the superstructure of a ship docked in the boatyard inlet seen in the upper left, rising above the vehicles parked in the boatyard:The strip of land used to film this scene is in the right portion of this photo, next to the fence, with the railroad bridge partially visible beyond the trees (photos taken on 05/14/2010):Another view of the strip of land between the fence and the small boatyard inlet:This shot was taken through the fence, and under the trailer, showing the spot where Castillo stood next to the stretcher:And, this is taken at the river, with the bridge just over my left shoulder, and the tip of the boatyard property visible at the right:... and in the lower right corner of this photo, protecting the boatyard from being entered at the edge of the water is ......several loops of razor wire. I did not proceed any further. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Vercetti Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Another view of the strip of land between the fence and the small boatyard inlet:The building you see here is the Embassy Suites hotel, the gorgeous interior of which was seen in Heart of Night. There are photos of it in my thread in the travel section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C Glide Posted July 30, 2010 Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 Location CorrectionThe floater was pulled out of the water on the south side of the Miami River not the north side. They were at 4080 NW South River Dr. Due south then a little west of the location sited above. The scene starts with a shot of the bridge with Miami Jai Alai in the bg then it pans along the bridge over the water to the south side of the river. Miami Jai Alai is on the north side. The vice crew is on the south side of the river just west of the rr bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt5 Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 great thanks, SoflaJeremy ,A real shame there are so many unknown locations - this appears to be an episode with a lot of unknown locations which is unusual for this part of the site ! Interesting about the Fontainebleau Hotel room though ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt5 Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 SoflaJeremy - ref the interior hotel room being the Fontainebleau that I believe I can confirm as the picture below shows a standard hotel room at the Fontainebleau from when the Hotel was open - the frames are single and low ( a match for the still posted on your website ) - so we can now confirm that room as being in the then Fontainebleau . http://www.miamibeach411.com/photos/hotel/fontainebleau.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt5 Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 (edited) A really excellent episode and great locations and movie like direction from David Anspaugh( "Golden Triangle Pt2" ) filmed in January 1985 which aired early February 1985.Val's hotel room was shot at the Fontainebleau Hilton - the only time , I believe, they shot interiors at the property in the five year run Edited October 4, 2014 by Matt5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt5 Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 some locations is still unidentified. The party house and the consulate. Would love to find the Consulate it was also seen in the background of the limo scene in " Rock and a Hard Place " from Season 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airtommy Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 When they enter the door of the Consulate at about 20:27, you can see a reflection in the window. There are 3 white signs and a green street sign. Can anybody with Blu-Ray discs read them? The more I think about this location, the more I believe it must be near the studio. There just isn't much location overlap between this ep and "Rock and a Hard Place". And the two scenes are so brief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C Glide Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 Near the studio has long been my thought but who knows. I will take a look at the Blu-ray when I get home tonight to follow up on your lead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airtommy Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 I just came up with an amazing false lead. Look at the building at 1460 N.E. 123rd Street on Google Street View. It's the correct height, its walls are made of square panels, it's very close to the studio. Seems perfect .... except that in the 1986 aerial it's a vacant lot. It's even described as "a modern Art Deco design" http://howitteyecare.com/facilitiesMIAMI.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
