Real Houses From Famous TV Shows

The front doors you saw at the start of every episode really exist. These are the actual houses and apartment buildings filmed for the exterior shots of much-loved American series, from the Tanners' San Francisco Victorian to the Bradys' ranch house and the Greenwich Village building the Friends gang supposedly lived in. Each photo shows the real place as it stands, with a note on where it is and how it differs from what you saw on screen. To earn a place, a house had to be a real building on a public street, not a studio backlot facade, so Stars Hollow and Wisteria Lane are absent. Almost every one is a private home with people living inside: look from the sidewalk, keep your voice down and leave the doorbells alone.
