Where Was Ghost Filmed?

Location 01

104 Prince Street

Manhattan, New York City Outside only

Filmed here: Molly and Sam's apartment exterior and related scenes

This cast-iron SoHo building played the exterior of Molly and Sam's apartment, appearing in several key scenes. The interior was actually a set built at Paramount Studios in Los Angeles from plans of a real SoHo loft. Today the building houses retail stores at street level, and fans can view the facade from the public sidewalk. It sits in the heart of SoHo, an easy walk from other Manhattan filming locations.

Location 02

Crosby Street

SoHo, Manhattan, New York City Free to see

Filmed here: Sam Wheat's murder scene

This public street between Prince and Spring Streets in SoHo is where Sam Wheat's murder takes place, the pivotal scene that sets the entire plot in motion. Visitors can walk the same stretch of pavement and recognise the block from the film. Because it is an ordinary public street, access is unrestricted at any time, and it lies just around the corner from the Prince Street apartment location.

Location 03

Mezzogiorno Restaurant (former)

SoHo, Manhattan, New York City Outside only

Filmed here: Oda Mae convinces Molly scene ('Ditto')

The exterior of this SoHo restaurant appears in the scene where Oda Mae convinces Molly, the moment that ends with the famous line 'Ditto'. Mezzogiorno closed permanently after filming and relocated elsewhere, so diners can no longer eat here. The building itself remains standing and its exterior is viewable from the street, letting fans match it against the scene.

Location 04

George Washington Statue, Federal Hall

Manhattan, New York City Free to see

Filmed here: Ending donation to nuns scene

The statue outside Federal Hall at 28 Wall Street appears in the film's ending, when money is donated to the nuns. The site is a historic landmark in the heart of the Financial District, and the exterior with the Washington statue is publicly accessible. It combines well with other Lower Manhattan sightseeing and is a short walk from Wall Street's other attractions.

Location 05

Myrtle Avenue & Broadway

Bushwick, Brooklyn, New York City Free to see

Filmed here: Chase scene ending at elevated station

This intersection in Bushwick, Brooklyn, is where the chase scene ends at an elevated subway station. The subway scenes themselves were filmed on an abandoned level of a New York City subway station. The intersection and station area remain fully public today, and visitors arriving by subway will step off at nearly the same spot seen on screen.

Location 06

592 Prospect Place

Brooklyn, New York City Outside only

Filmed here: Willie Lopez apartment

This residential Brooklyn building served as the apartment of Willie Lopez, the character behind Sam's death. It is a private residential building, so visiting means viewing the exterior only from the street. The block retains a quiet, everyday neighbourhood feel, and fans of the film can compare the facade with its appearance in the movie.

Location 07

650 South Spring Street (former Bank of America)

Downtown, Los Angeles Outside only

Filmed here: Bank signature verification scene

This former Bank of America building in Downtown Los Angeles stands in for the bank in the signature verification scene. It now functions as an apartment building, so there is nothing to visit inside, but the exterior can be viewed from the public street. It is one of the few Los Angeles locations used for the film's New York-set story.

Location 08

The Ebell of Los Angeles

Midtown, Los Angeles Ticketed

Filmed here: Second bank scene

This historic Midtown Los Angeles venue hosted the second bank scene in the film. Unlike most locations on this list, access is ticketed rather than fully public, since the Ebell operates as an events venue. Visitors hoping to see inside should check the venue's events schedule and plan around performances or other programming that grants entry.
