The scene was filmed at Los Angeles City Hall - a 32-story office building built in 1928 and the first dedicated city hall building in Los Angeles. The building was designed in a combination of various styles and did not claim any specific style. Due to the city charter limiting building heights, the tower was the tallest building in Los Angeles until 1964.
