Hawaii as San Fran, NYC, UK, Oz, etc.
The Associated Press published a story yesterday on how Hawaii stands in for many different locations in "Lost" flashback scenes.
Here are some examples of how "Lost" has used Hawaii as somewhere else:
- Sydney Airport = Hawaii Convention Center
- Iraqi prison = WWII bunkers at Diamond Head
- Korean fishing village = Kualoa Ranch
- Santa Fe bank = Downtown Honolulu bank
- English chapel grounds = St. Andrew's Priory in downtown Honolulu
- New Orleans mansion = Nuuanu house
- San Francisco boardroom = Downtown Honolulu conference room
- London nightclub = Honolulu nightclub
- NYC street (complete w/subway entrance & pay phone) = Bishop St. in downtown Honolulu
