North Spring Street
This intersection was the shooting location for the tragic climax of Roman Polanski’s Chinatown, one of the greatest films noir ever made. A staple of Hollywood cinema since the 1940s, film noir blended the cynical, hardboiled American crime fiction of the 20s and 30s with striking, moody cinematography inspired by German Expressionist filmmaking. Film noir stories often follow highly flawed protagonists who find themselves embroiled in conspiracies and complicated investigations far beyond their reach.

Bradbury Building (Pass By)
See that brown, Victorian office building on your right? That’s the Bradbury Building, one of LA’s National Historic Landmarks. The Bradbury has been used in a ton of movies, including Double Indemnity and (500) Days of Summer, but it’s most well known as the location for reclusive genetic designer J.F. Sebastian’s apartment in the original Blade Runner. The film returns to this location a number of times, including for the climactic rooftop showdown between human detective Deckard, played by Harrison Ford, and his Replicant quarry Roy Batty. After an extended chase, the expiring Roy delivers one of science fiction’s most famous monologues:
453 S Spring St

Once a bank, this space has been transformed into a wonderland for book lovers, with awe-inspiring displays in every nook and cranny of the two-story atrium.

10 minutes • Admission Ticket Free
Palace Theatre (Pass By)
The Palace Theater, most famous for doubling as the mysterious Club Silencio in David Lynch’s surrealist masterpiece Mulholland Drive. One of Lynch’s finest works, Mulholland Drive is both a love letter and a scathing indictment of Hollywood itself, created by an artist who has spent the majority of his career on the outside looking in.
Cicada Restaurant and Lounge (Pass By)
"Look to your left for a vintage, Art Deco looking place on the bottom floor of this building. See the carefully crafted iron grills over the windows? You’re looking at the Cicada Club, a night club that’s been a Hollywood staple since it opened in the 20s. In film, it’s most famous as the location where Julia Roberts flung a snail across the room in Pretty Woman, although it’s also been featured in other movies like Bruce Almighty and Once Upon a Time… In Hollywood.
"

Bronson Caves (Pass By)
Holy Toledo, Batman, we’re coming up on Bronson Canyon! This series of caves has been used in Westerns and sci-fi films since the 30s, but it’s most famous as the location of the original Batcave in the 60s Batman TV show. See that little tunnel up ahead? By using carefully chosen camera angles, the mouth of that tunnel was transformed into the entrance to Bruce Wayne’s underground lair. Because the “cave” was really the mouth of a tunnel, the Batmobile could be filmed shooting out of the Batcave at high speeds that wouldn’t have been safe with a real cave.
