im watching it right now....

the opening scene is in the Kresge court [[i think) at the DIA with Diego's fresco in the background...

since its HIGH UP in the air, im wondering if she was filmed on a scaffold to put it in the background as if it was at floor level...

according to IMDB the only filming location listed is Detroit...

there are some scenes at the Packard and some that look like the fields north of Brush [[where those fabulous houses are collapsing upon themselves) and then a shot from down near the MCR station...

there are some interior shots [[decayed lobby?) and another hotel interior with a high ceilinged foyer. i didnt recognize them...

The "class" is taking place in Rivera Court. They're on the main floor. The plants that are behind her are on ground level. There's no platform. When she gets "kidnapped" by Cole, they're in front of the Woodward entrance, where they valet park cars sometimes for special events.

Also, they're walking @ the Packard, but the "watch discovery" and a couple of quick scenes are @ the old Southwest Hospital. They must have Photoshopped "Purge Suey" out.
