Talk:CTU Los Angeles building

I just want to be sure, but look at the last paragraph. Wasn't there some stuff that they did with Nina in season three, before the remodeled CTU? Michelle and someone else were in the mirror room as Tony was interrogating Nina. That paragraph is in the new CTU section, but if it is going to be mentioned, I think it needs to be addressed in the old CTU section.

Geography

• disclaimer: i'm a nut for maps and geography.

Based on clues given in seasons 1 and 2, some friends and I decided that CTU must be in the area around Echo Park (north of Downtown, near the river). Also, one scene in season 1 briefly shows the backside of Dodger Stadium in the distance. Anyone to back me up?

• Also, anyone think of making a plan of the CTU building?

Maps of CTU and of L.A. are included in The Game. Inferring locations based on speculation isn't encyclopedic. --Proudhug 21:28, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

I agree with Proudhug. I'm fine for any photos, images or maps we got from the show or game, but I don't think that we need or want any maps or schematics based on what we think might be where. -Kapoli 21:39, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Why couldn't speculative information go in Trivia or Notes? I'm really interested to hear what User:Cymra37 has figured out. Also, while the location of CTU Los Angeles is speculative, it's entirely possible to make a schematic of the building based on what we've seen on the show or in the game. Also, if we're limiting ourselves to things seen on the show, that means we couldn't use the blueprints shown in the season 4 DVD extras. Or the fascinating and encyclopedic information that the barcodes on the glass read the set designer's name. --StBacchus 22:21, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

While notes about possible locations of things are fine and dandy to include as trivia or notes, posting a full-blown speculative blueprint of CTU is the same as posting fanfiction... or my timeline. ;-) The best bet would probably be to post it on a different website and add a link here. --Proudhug 22:29, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

I want your timeline too! I just don't want it on every page of the site, that's all. In fact, we could have a couple of pages: Speculative timeline and Speculative location guide. The location guide could have a map with notes. That would be awesome and very useful for those of us who don't live in the L.A. area. --StBacchus 04:10, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Where can I find that map? --Cymra37 21:18, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

If you're playing the game, maps are in the PDA (hit Select). I'm working on a way to make screencaps. --StBacchus 04:29, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

There are screenshots of The Game on www.twentyfouronline.com, or you can try google, but I'm not sure if those screencaps will have what you're specifically looking for.

No, those are all promotional photos, not screenshots. --Proudhug 22:46, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

The old and new buildings are definitely the same place. You can tell because of the layout. Can anyone prove this?Cymra37 17:43, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
