Blade Runner celebrates its anniversary today, originally released one June 25, 1982. Although I’m not a big fan of the film, it does have quite a following and I’ve visited a few locations over the years.
First up is the often-filmed Union Station at 800 North Alameda Street in Los Angeles.
Also used quite a bit is the 2nd Street Tunnel in Downtown Los Angeles.
The Ennis House was used in a couple shots as Deckard’s apartment. It is located at 2607 Glendower Avenue. I happened to be lucky to sneak in one day while they were working!
I didn’t go inside, but a lot of the architecture was replicated on the set.
The Million Dollar Theatre is seen a couple times in the background at 307 South Broadway in Downtown Los Angeles.
Right across the street is the Bradbury Building at 304 South Broadway. Obviously they built a facade for t his, but this is what it looks like on the outside.
You can step inside and see the great staircases and architecture.
Most of the film was shot at Warner Bros. Studios and backlot.
On the tour, you can see a few of the miniatures used in the film.
If you head over to Petersen Automotive Museum (6060 Wilshire Boulevard) you can see some of the props ans vehicles used in the film as well as Blade Runner 2049.
