A Breakdown of Locations
If you’re wondering where Rabbit Hole was filmed, you might be surprised to learn that some significant locations were in Canada. The show takes place in New York, but through the magic of filmmaking, Ontario was used as a cheaper filming location.
Location 1 – Ontario, Canada
Ontario has long been used as a filming location due to its cheaper costs, and the architecture and streets are very easily converted to look like the mean streets of New York. Filming in Canada took place between May and September 2022.
Location 2 – Toronto, Ontario
Toronto is well known for its screen production industry. It has been used as a location for New York and other US locales and international cities such as Paris, London, Morocco, Saigon, and Tehran. For the production of Rabbit Hole, the set for the New York police station was the Toronto Metropolitan University. Social media provided some pictures from natives of the city who spotted cameras and crews filming at Adelaide and York Street.
Location 3 – Hamilton, Ontario
Hamilton has seen quite a bit of filmmaking action over the years, and the team behind Rabbit Hole used a home on Amelia Street that was used as the house for one of the characters’ mothers. An area around Gore Park was also scouted for some filming, and the Royal Connaught Hotel was transformed into a New York City hotel called Decatur West NYC.
The set was dressed to make it more like New York. Some of the tricks used in production include lining the streets with yellow New York cabs, draping the outside buildings with American flags, and changing the license plates on cars on the set to US ones.
