Before the job. After the job.
The famous warehouse no longer survives. Instead of presenting an empty site as a preserved set, this route concentrates on places whose buildings remain. What matters is the contrast between ordinary surroundings and the characters’ rehearsed identities, arguments and increasingly fragile trust.
Locations are sequenced as a fan journey, not a plot recap. Songs, scenes and episodes lead the route; changed, private and doubled sites are labelled rather than smoothed into fiction.
5 public-place or area references. Private properties and unlocated historic sites stay off the map.

Private event and filming property; no regular walk-in access is assumed.
03The gang’s principal warehouse was a temporary use of an industrial building later removed; the intersection remains the honest map reference.

Exact title and mapped-place matches come first. A clearly labelled city film or music programme may follow when it helps extend the journey.
No strong current event association is published for this World. We would rather leave this quiet than force a generic city listing.
A shared venue or neighbourhood connects a programme to the map; a city-level programme connects only to the World’s medium. Neither implies a themed event, cast appearance or artist performance. Confirm dates, location, access and tickets with the organiser.
