The Street Where “The Hills” Finale Was Filmed
‘ One location that I have been on the lookout for for a couple of months now is the street where Kristin Cavallari said good-bye to on-again/off-again boyfriend Brody Jenner in the final scene of the series finale of fave show The Hills, which aired on July 13th of this year. For whatever reason, though,…

The George Peabody Library from “Sleepless in Seattle”
‘ The Grim Cheaper has never been much interested in filming locations, as I’ve mentioned many times before.

Charles W. Eliot Middle School from “The Mentalist”
‘ Located directly across the street from the Larry Crowne apartment building in Altadena, which I blogged about last Friday, is Charles W. Eliot (not Elliot) Middle School – a very unique and arresting structure that looms over the neighborhood thanks to its large fortress-like bell tower. My veterinarian is located just up the street…
