Set Locations

Post  Admin on Thu Sep 18, 2008 4:27 pm

Okay so here's the scoop ... Season 8 is mostly shot in Metropolis. Infact Smallville hasn't even shot at the Kent Farm for Season 8 yet according to one setsider which means A> they're saving money, B> they're only doing interior shots and using canned footage of the outside. Most of Metropolis is on the actual Studio grounds.

However, having been to most of the sites I can offer you guidance regarding where to go:

Smallville is shot in and around Vancouver.

BB Studios
6228 Beresford St.
Burnaby, BC

The Smallville set. If you hang around long enough (if they'll let you) then you'll see something eventually.

Kent Farm
8 St. & 28
Langley, BC

Please respect the owners of the farm. A real family lives there and they most likely want their privacy. Stay outside of the gates and they don't mind you standing around taking pics and vids.

Oliver Queen's Apartment
Vancouver Block Building
700 block of Granville St.
Vancouver, BC

Downtown and a very cool looking building.

Luthor Mansion
Hatley Castle
3 Blocks Past Metchosin Rd. (University Entrance)
Westshore Victoria, BC

The exterior of the Luthor Mansion. You'll need to take a Ferry to get over to Victoria. There is a cost so check ahead of time.

Daily Planet
Marine Building
355 Burrard St.
Vancouver, BC

The exterior is there in all it's brown (not quite as glossy as on the show) majesty. BTW, the globe is CGI.

Main Street Smallville
Downtown Cloverdale
Highway 101/128
The Talon: 57th & 176th St.
Cloverdale, BC

Coquihalla Hwy
Merritt, BC

There are multiple shoot locations in tiny little Cloverdale. Smallville shoot locations as well as the exterior of The Talon are marked with huge signs that you can't miss. I must warn you, it can stink quite bad in the area. Merritt, where the other downtown scenes are shot, is a bit of a hike. At least a tank of gas for most there and back.

The Bridge
Menzies Crossing
Pitt Meadows, BC

The bridge where Lex hits Clark with his car in Episode 1.

Shanghai from Season 4
Dr. Sun Yat Sen Classical Chinese Garden
578 Carrall St.
Vancouver, BC

It's worth the trip but watch your purse.

Clark's Metropolis Apartment
7 Art Galleries
1540 W 2nd Ave.
Vancouver, BC

The exterior really wasn't changed at all. You'll feel the red kryptonite when you're there.

Smallville High School
Templeton Secondary School
727 Templeton St.
Vancouver, BC

Where the gang went to high school.

Dr. Swann's Office
New York Public Library
New York, NY

Quite the place. Quite the sight.

Smallville Medical Centre
Langley Memorial Hospital
22051 Fraser Hwy
Langley, BC

Most hospital exterior and some interior shots have been done here.

The Season 6 Dam (Bizarro vs. Clark)
Ruskin Dam
N 49° 11.694 W 122° 24.699
Mission, BC

The damn at the end of Season 6 where Lex holds experiments and where Bizarro is unleashed.

The interiors are all on set so unless you can get on set you won't be able to see those.

Want other locations? Just ask.

The interior of the Kent Barn is on the BB Studios lot. The exterior is on the Farm Grounds that are listed above. Wink

That's for "Smallvil" Not sure why it is that your post was deleted but there's your answer.
