Replacement Technologies (rooftop)
Scene where Helipad and rooftop structures built atop the building.
Scene was shot This large building that takes up an entire block in downtown Vancouver was the main Canada Post sorting facility since 1958 until it was sold in 2013 when a new facility near the airport opened. The site originally included a kilometer long underground tunnel leading to the waterfront so mail could be taken directly from ships to the facility. The offices have become very popular with productions since their shutdown, with some even using them as sound stages.

Mall & RePet
Scene was shot Eaton Centre was constructed in 1977 by Timothy Eaton to house the Toronto flagship store of his eponymous department store chain and retains that name despite Eaton's going bankrupt in the 90s. The mall is centered around a vaulted glass-ceiling galleria designed by Eberhard Zeidler. The Yonge Street side of the mall was remodeled in the 2000s to add street-facing stores with a variety of facades to give the illusion that it consists of multiple buildings.
