The scene was filmed at A park of about 1000 acres located north of Los Angeles, with characteristic uplifted rock formations. Its distinctive appearance and location within the thirty-mile zone have made the rocks an extremely popular filming location since they first appeared in the film "Werewolf in London" in 1935.

The scene was filmed at Columbus Tower, also known as the Sentinel Building, is a mixed-use building in San Francisco, California, completed in 1907. Although the building was finished in 1907, construction began before the San Francisco earthquake the previous year, but extensive damage to the construction site and the entire city significantly slowed progress. The building was designed by Salfield and Kohlberg. Currently, most of the tower is occupied by Francis Ford Coppola's studio "American Zoetrope".

The scene was filmed at The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge spanning the Golden Gate, the one-mile-wide (1.6 km) strait connecting San Francisco Bay to the Pacific Ocean. Construction began on January 5, 1933. The project cost over $35 million. Several designers were involved in the bridge's design. Joseph Strauss was the chief engineer responsible for the overall design and construction of the bridge. However, since he lacked sufficient understanding or experience in designing cable-supported structures, much of the engineering and architectural work fell to other specialists. Strauss's initial design proposal (two double cantilever spans connected by a central suspension segment) was visually unacceptable. The final elegant suspension design was conceived and championed by Leon Moisseiff, an engineer of the Manhattan Bridge in New York. Irving Morrow, a relatively unknown residential architect, designed the overall shape of the bridge towers, the lighting scheme, and Art Deco elements such as tower decorations, lampposts, railings, and walkways. The famous International Orange color was Morrow's personal choice and won out over other options.
