Hogarth, Chao & Benowitz LLP | MCU: Location Scout

Low angle shot of skyscrapers in Manhattan.

Jessica, did Miss Hogarth ask you to stop by?

Jessica’s “friend” and lawyer (not necessarily in that order), Jeri Hogarth, is a partner at a large law firm based out of the Bank of America Financial Tower on 6th Ave and 42nd Street.

The establishing shot was filmed under the traffic light on the northeast corner of 6th at 42nd. The footage inside the office appears to be filmed in the tower itself, with the shots in the Lobby looking South, and the shots in the stairs and hallway looking East. Based on a shot from episode 3 where the number “44” appears outside the lobby doors, the offices are on the 44th floor–unless this is just a suite number.

MAP

The scenes of Jeri in her office appear to have been filmed on a soundstage. It’s a very convincing setup, broken by the fifth image below (from episode 6), which has the camera hovering outside the window to Jeri’s office. Something that would have been impossible if these scenes were filmed at the actual BofA Tower.
