The inside of the firehouse is a REAL fire station in Los Angeles, the outside was taken from a real fire station in New York.

Dana's building is real too... I can't imagine that there are many big open fields on Central Park West, where a movie studio could build a prop building... However, I will say this... During the earthquake sequence, the scenes of the police car being sucked down were shot infront of a facade (in LA) of the real building...

Yep, both the firehouse and Dana's building are real, although according to the deal, the rooftop was added by them.

The firehouse is real because it was used in the film the Mask. Dana's apartment building was real aswell but I think the roof part was added on or something like that.

Dana's building facade had 3 floors and the roofcap added by a matte drawing. The firehouse facade exists on N. Moore Street at the edge of Tribeca. Dana's apartment was build on 2 sound stages at Sony. The Firehouse interiro was FDLA Station 3.
