Not unlike a costume designer selecting an unusual fabric, design or color to define a character\u2019s look, the members of the Location Department on Gotham\u00a0<\/em>have shown a willingness to get their hands dirty, often literally, in order to find those grimy, grungy locations that will help define the city as a character. The Gotham <\/em>Location Department\u2019s specialty over the years has been scouting off the beaten path in order to deliver visually stunning locations rarely used by other shows.<\/p>\n

The Old Bronx Courthouse<\/p><\/div>\n

Many\u00a0of Gotham\u2019s\u00a0<\/i>most extraordinary locations are scheduled for redevelopment in the near future, their legacy living on only through the show, such as the Old Bronx Courthouse, first opened in 1934.\u00a0 The Beaux-arts style stone and granite building had been hiding in plain sight for nearly twenty years before it was rediscovered by the Gotham <\/i>LocationDepartment.\u00a0 Since then, it has been featured extensively on the show for both exteriors and interiors.\u00a0\u201cFrom the street, it\u2019s impressive,\u201d Novotny says. \u201cThe marble lobby, even more so.\u201d<\/p>\n

The show\u00a0turned another iconic location into something of a tourist destination.\u00a0 The Bayley Seton Hospital in Staten Island, founded in 1831 to serve retired sailors, has served as a variety of settings over each of the previous four seasons.\u00a0 Slated to eventually become a Community Center and green campus if its new owner, the Salvation Army ever manages to cut through the red tape, the hospital appeared in the series as fan-favorite Arkham Asylum, where Gotham\u2019s most famous \u201ccriminally insane\u201d baddies are housed and the production has left its \u201cArkham Gate” set piece standing on the site for multiple seasons.<\/p>\n

By far\u00a0the location that is mentioned the mostand revered by the crew is the landmark Dime Bank in downtown Brooklyn, an imposing Classic Revival with a striking rotunda. Adams gives all the credit to scouts Susan Silas and Scott Tankel for the discovery.\u00a0 \u201cTo\u00a0find something unique, you have to pay attention to what\u2019s happening in the real estate development world, keep feelers out, and track things that may be available in the future,\u201d says Adams.\u00a0The Dime Bank had been closed down for two or three years and owned by a number of different entities before finally being sold off to a developer.\u00a0 Silas heard about it and got in to take a look.\u201d \u00a0Once inside, there was no question the location was exceptional – even for a department with an impressive track record of unique finds.\u00a0\u201cIt was built in the early 1900s and it has these gilded Mercury-head dimes, huge red marble columns, and the most incredible vault – the largest I\u2019ve ever seen – with all of these safety deposit boxes that jut out, creating this unique visual chaos and texture\u201d says Adams.\u00a0 \u201cIt just screamed old New York and, subsequently, old Gotham.\u201d They ended up shooting a scene in season four with Penguin\u2019s unscrupulous accountant, Mr. Penn, in the vault and have returned to the bank for other scenes many times since.<\/p>\n

Mott Haven Bar aka Bruckner Bar, Bronx, framed by the overpasses leading to the Willis Ave bridge.
The bar and surrounding streets are a gritty, yet very controllable area for exterior filming.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Oak Point Warehouse Silos. Gotham was the first major production to highlight the interiors of the industrial silos (at the now very production popular Oak Point Warehouse).<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Mt. Olivet Church, Harlem. Gotham has portrayed the DUMBO arch as an abstract for the exterior
of the Gotham City Police Department, but for the Season 4 finale storyline, we needed a
proper entrance to the exterior of the GCPD. We re-established exterior GCPD with
the neo-roman style church located on Malcolm X Blvd.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

The 12th Ave Viaduct, Manhattan, a mainstay for Gotham.
The repeating steel arches have been the backdrop for many episodes.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

The Vanderbilt Museum, Centerport, Long Island. We chose a location outside of the 30-mile zone
to achieve a Miami-style feel for Gotham. As coincidence would have it,
we returned to the Vanderbilt Mansion the very next episode to play as Gotham Natural History Museum.
The mansion has its own diorama hall, and a suspended whale shark.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Poppenhusen Institute, an historic building (1868) in the outskirts of Queens (College Point).
The dramatic peaked high arching windows set the backdrop of our abandoned Gotham courthouse.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Alder Manor, Indoor Pool Room, Yonkers NY. Gotham has used this historic mansion many times on the show. We finally were able to feature its very unique indoor pool.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Gotham has filmed many scenes throughout the different environments and businesses at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. The GMD Shipyard at the Brooklyn Navy Yard was the backdrop for the high drama between Nygma and Penguin. The production embraced a grey wet day, and the titanic shipping cranes looked especially ominous and forbidding in the scene.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Manhattan Bridge<\/p><\/div>\n

Thankfully, there\u2019s at least one Gotham location that isn\u2019t likely to disappear anytime soon\u2014the anchorage of the Manhattan Bridge on the Brooklyn side. \u201cIn season two, we were scouting DUMBO, looking for the exterior of Gotham PD. I remember the director looked up at this big stone structure and\u2026 he just had an inspiration about it,\u201d says Line Producer Thomas Whelan. \u201dIt\u2019s stuff like that that really makes you proud.\u201d<\/p>\n
