80's photoshop. 95% of DC based TV, especially in the 80's, never saw the city

This. I've seen '80s-era car chases set in "DC" that involved numerous palm trees. On the other hand, there's DC Cab, which aside from a few alley scenes that were apparently filmed in NYC, was shot almost entirely on location in DC. It's actually a pretty amazing historical document at this point.

This is especially funny since NYC doesn't have many alleys and the ones that do exist are apparently difficult to book for filming since everyone wants to use them.

Those look like DC rowhouses (but could also be from B'more or Philly) but no block of rowhouses is going to have a view of the Monument anything like that one.

Don’t think Baltimore, most Bmore row homes have a flat front, not many have turret looking things

Yeah they do in west Baltimore. But this show is about Chicago
