SHOOT: ONCE UPON A TIME Turns Vancouver Club into NYPD 35th Precinct

Once Upon a Time’s spring premiere next year is entitled New York City Serenade. Showrunner Adam Horowitz shared the title spoiler in mid-November and we’ve seen several location shoots for episode 3×12 in downtown Vancouver dressed as New York City — from Gastown’s Koret Lofts to Stanley Park dressed as Central Park to the Vancouver Club as NYPD 35th Precinct to Yaletown’s Brix restaurant and wine bar as a NYC restaurant Ostria. And even more of us have seen prop NYC cabs either parked or circling city blocks from downtown to Yaletown.

I first saw filming for New York City Serenade in Stanley Park but withheld the photos of Hook’s arrest by New York police as spoilers. They still are and I would have kept them until spring but didn’t expect OUAT to turn the venerable Vancouver Club into NYPD 35th Precinct in the middle of Vancouver’s Business District.
