Laura's First Loft exterior    800 Traction Avenue, Los Angeles

Los Angeles County Arboretum & Botanic Garden  This is where Laura is undercover as a jogger and runs from the 3 guys in suits. I had mistakenly put this location at Huntington Gardens but once I went to the Arboretum it was super obvious this is where the entire sequence was shot, even the Orchid House.  Bonus if you visit, they also have the Fantasy Island House.

. tree in show (that's Laura under it BTW) tree today

94th Aero Squadron     16320 Raymer St, Van Nuys, CA    Restaurant where Steele takes the man out of the restaurant and threatens him against a tree.

Mulholland Memorial Fountain   3424 Riverside Drive, Los Angeles    Laura and Steele kiss in front of this at night.  (in a later episode they jump in it, to escape a speeding car.)

Occidental College 1600 campus rd.  Los Angeles   Interrogating one of the crying wives, I think it was the guilty one.

 28 Love Among the Steele     2x6 

Cardinal Timothy Manning House for Priests Estate where the party takes place 3431 Waverly Drive in Los Angeles. (thanks to Thomas J. Pucher for this one) There was a big legal battle for this property between the nuns and priests, the priests won (typical) and they are selling the property to Katy Perry.

House where they try to return the car to the doctor.    10272 Moorpark Street North Hollywood, CA

Timeless Motors    11514 Ventura Boulevard  Car lot where the Auburn ended up after the chase where Mildred drove.

 

 

 

 

29 Scene Steelers     2x7  

 Arden Villa  1145 Arden Road, Pasadena California     Location of the commercial shoot at the top of the episode, I'm guessing that the bar (sword fight) was inside the house because lots of shows shot at this house and used the interior, and this doesn't look like a real pub rather it looks like a basement bar dressed as a pub.  

 Huntington Gardens  1151 Oxford Rd.  San Marino  I'm also guessing the tea room scene with Steele was shot inside the Huntington Museum, where exactly I don't know, but the windows match the ones in the library, only the library has wood covered walls, so it's probably some other room.  Plus the Huntington was just a few blocks from the villa.

Central Hollywood Studios    CBS Studio Center main gate  4024 Radford Ave. Studio City, CA

 El Royale 450 N Rossmore Ave, Los Angeles, Derek's Apartment (2 buildings away from Steele's condo)

30 Steele Knuckles and Glass Jaws     2x8

Most likely it's somewhere in Griffith Park where the boxer runs alongside the VW with Steele, Laura, and Mildred in it.

It's also likely the boxing took place in Grand Olympic Auditorium 1801 S. Grand Ave. (now a Korean church)

Union Station 818 North Alameda Street, Los Angeles

Vitamin Store is in Venice on the corner of Pacific and Windward. I think the interior was a set.  This is the same corner BTW where Laura and Steele use the phone undercover as a bum and roller skater in a later episode.

Mark's house where the body is found in the fridge 1417 Palisades Beach Road, Santa Monica (Thanks to Camargue for this)

Hilton hotel Pasadena 168 South Los Robles Avenue, Pasadena, California, 91101    Home of the dental and chocolate convention.  The hotel website pics show it has been completely remodeled inside and looks nothing like it did.

37 Elegy in Steele     2x15     2/21/84  

Presidential Car Wash 10515 Magnolia Blvd North Hollywood, CA 91601   While in the cab S & L evade the girl with a trip through this car wash. 

Lakeside golf club might be the golf course based on it's proximity to the car wash and the river basin.
LA River Basin Chase: This sequence was easy because nothing has changed, it looks exactly the same, scratch that, it used to look the same, the bridge was sadly demolished in early 2016 due to failure of the concrete.  This is a tragic loss it was very historic and dozens of movies, TV shows and music videos and commercials were shot here.

The chase of the daughter on her skates is:

Under the bridge at 6th and Mesquite is the shot of L and S running toward her. 

1438 E. 6th looking west (toward downtown) is the shot of the girl skating away next to the bridge (which technically isn’t accurate because she is headed into the river in the next scene which is the opposite direction.

1450 6th St. (at Santa Fe and 6th) L and S pointing, there is a green building behind them (now beige) when they stop running (facing the other direction now from the last shot) 

They then run away from downtown (east) under the bridge crossing Santa Fe Ave. into the river entrance ramp.

 

After they lose the girl on her motorbike scene in the river basin, the next scene is them running toward downtown on the 6th Ave. bridge stopping at 1402 E. 6th where the bridge ends and they cross the street to Mateo and Mesquite where Laura uses the phone to call her mom (the phone is gone now of course, actually it was probably a prop phone)

Riding in the cab on was done on Pico Blvd. (passing the Dino’s at 2575 W Pico Blvd, Los Angeles, CA) 

River basin fight scene is just north of where Los Feliz Boulevard crosses the river right before the 5. The bridge has to have changed which is why it was throwing me but I'm 90% positive this is the location. 

Post Office 11304 Chandler Blvd North Hollywood, CA, it now has blue trim instead of brown.    Desquione gets nabbed.

38 Small Town Steele     2x16  

Disney Golden Oak Ranch is definitely where they crash the car into the pond, and is probably where they sleep next to the tree and find the grave. 19802 Placerita Canyon Road (closed to the public) 

 The town is Warner Brothers Ranch (formerly Columbia Ranch) that section (the western street) is, of course, gone now.

 

 

39 Molten Steele     2x17  

Same white multi columned house as "To Stop a Steele" 1x15 but it's not the Selznick house or the Marion Davies Guest House, I know that much, but nothing else.

40 Dreams of Steele     2x18

Alhambra embankment between 710 (long beach freeway) and West Valley Blvd. Laura’s car gets tipped by the bulldozer and they tumble down the side.  

Lavulite gemologists house 3906 Stephen M White Drive, Los Angeles driving there is the Bluff Place St. adjacent to the house

Cabrillo Marine Aquarium 3720 Stephen M White Drive  this is still exactly as it was on the show when L & R talk to the guy at the top of the tank of sea snakes (the tank was added by the show of course) Cabarillo today is pictured at right
