[QUOTE="TJP, post: 317065, member: 5151"] # 1.22 "The Reckoning": I'm sure the stock shot of Athens to establish the scene with Sable, Jason and Frankie is from Athens / Greece, but I'm not too familiar with the city, so I don't recognize the exact street. The hotel in Athens is the former Park Plaza at 607 Park View Street across from MacArthur Park in L.A. It's been used in hundreds of productions, but may be best remembered for its probably longest-running use as the New Globe from "Falcon Crest". The restaurant / café interiors were shot there, too. The Park Plaza was not a functioning hotel any more at the time of filming, but was usually rented out as a reception venue and to movie studios for filming. It was only in recent year that it was converted back to a hotel when it was reopened as The MacArthur.

The store interiors are all Greek to me, too... Sorry for the pun, but I couldn't resist... The establishing shots of Athens (stock footage) feature (1) the Piraeus Port of Athens; (2) the Hellenic Parlament located in the Old Royal Palace, overlooking Syntagma Square.
