[QUOTE="TJP, post: 306118, member: 5151"] Going back to [B]# 2.16[/B] today: I found the downtown Truro streets from the establishing shots in the intro of "Sins of the Fathers": They were filmed in Seal Beach, CA. The first view after the main titles was shot from the southeastern part of Eisenhower Park along Ocean Avenue towards the corner of Ocean Avenue and Main Street. The distinct corner buildings with the many dormer windows are still there, but slightly remodeled and updated. [ATTACH type="full"]33034[/ATTACH] The corner of Main Street and Central Avenue is real, including these street signs from that era. If you look closely, you will see that Lorimar propped the Main Street sign with the additional "Truro" lettering, but otherwise, the signs were real. They have been updated since, but it's the corner by the same street names in Seal Beach, CA 90740. The brick building on the right in the first screen capture (which is actually the same structure on the second screen grab although the walls are out of the camera angle) is nowadays a branch of the Bank of America at 208 Main Street, Seal Beach. The building is pretty much like in the old days. The building across from it, which stands out as the tallest structure in the scene (street no. 207), is also still there and looks pretty much the same; it was repainted gray though.
