The Dark Knight Google Street View of TDK Shooting Locations

[ihavecomputer]

Hey everyone. Only 8 days left... 16 for our friends in the UK. How can one pass the time? Take a tour of Gotham. In the spirit of Retroman & Sasquatchs' original TDK filming threads (1, 2) I've compiled a list of Google Street View links to various TDK shooting locations in Chicago.

I am only posting what I know for sure. I couldn't find the exact spot of the exploding Mercedes so I didn't include it (it's in the same neighborhood as the Two Face bar).

Others feel free to chime in and add a link, PM me if there's an addition or mistake - I'll keep this first post updated accordingly.

I actually really appreciate this thread. Retro and Sasquatch and all them were awesome back in the day. I miss those times.

 

[raxor]

Awsome stuff dude.. thanks.. it'll be great if we can take a screen shot of the real stuff and the one's from the trailer and compare them..

 

[ospumas1]

i appreciate this also, nicely done

 

[TheDarkVictory]

this is so awesome because these are all places i walk by on a daily basis. ahh...chicago.

 

[Bond]

I need to go to Chicago so bad.

 

[Anita18]

I've never been to Chicago, but I've got a friend who loves it so she'll appreciate this thread.

Or hate me for sending it to her, cause it'll only remind her how she's not there.

 

[raxor]

Can anyone put of screenshots from the trailers and compare them with the ones of the shooting locations? It'll be really cool.. Im at work right now.. would've done it otherwise.. Or I'll do it later in the day..

Thanks for the Joker intersection one,
that shot has sorta become iconic in my opinion

and I took a drive a during the Taste and went to the wrong location

Me and a buddy of mine were screwing around on Lasalle (Batpod/Hit me) today. "Recreating" the trailer and what not. Gosh, we're such nerds. I'm most definetly grabbing my joker goon mask and have someone pick me up at the intersection where joker waited for the robbery. Perhaps for the midnight show?

I'm going to Chicago at some point or another and am glad for this thread.

I'll be checking out most of these places.

 

[terry78]

Haha, I work right next to the Starbucks that's in the trailer that Joker walks next to on LaSalle.

I'm not sure about your "courthouse exterior" link (where is it?), but for the rest...

Nice work! (someone should do if for the UK & HongKong too)

You haven't been on the west side of the city then.

Be sure to stop by the last link while you're in town (Two-Face bar) and have a pint or four.

Twin Anchors has been one of my favorites spots for several years when visiting Chicago. Stopped in again last Saturday for a few over 4th weekend and got to see where Two-Face literally left some lasting marks on this fantastic establishment (just to the left of the forward tap handles). Check it out.

The bartender also dropped a spoiler on me that I didn't see coming. Was a little peeved about that.

Wow!... nice!
