56 Beaver Street and 1 Wall Street Court in NYC

 Sometimes two buildings might be used for the same setting. That has been the case in the John+Wick movies.

"The gothic feel of the hotel scenes beautifully reinforces John Wick’s noir atmosphere and really made me curious about it so here it is: the exterior of the Continental Hotel in John Wick is The Beaver Building at 1 Wall Street Court in Manhattan. However, the interior scenes were filmed at Delmonico’s, a restaurant located on 2 South William Street (56 Beaver Street) in New York." https://www.legendarytrips.com/john-wick-continental-hotel-new-york-filming-locations

The two buildings in the same city that are a little similar, yet quite different.
