Whoopi Goldberg

The 1986 Penny Marshall film “Jumpin’ Jack Flash,” starring Whoopi Goldberg, was filmed in New York City and Los Angeles. In the film, Terry Doolittle, played by Goldberg, lives in this apartment, located in New York. Only the exteriors were filmed at this location.

LOCATION: 65 W 73rd St, New York, NY 10023

The house of Liz Carlson, played by Annie Potts, can be found in the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles.

The exterior of the British Consulate was filmed in New York (2 E 91st St, New York, NY 10128), while the interiors were shot at the oft-filmed Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills. While the outside of the Greystone grounds is open daily and free to the public, opportunities to tour inside are somewhat rare. The property is owned by the City of Beverly Hills and regularly accommodates productions and private events. Therefore, only a few times a year is access to the inside of the estate possible. Planning ahead is required if you’d like to see inside. The mansion has been featured in countless films, such as “The Big Lebowski,” “There Will Be Blood,” “The Social Network” and dozens more.

The 1994 remake of “The Little Rascals” was filmed around Southern California. Spanky’s house, seen in the opening of the film, can be found in Burbank. Most of the homes seen in the film are likewise located in Burbank. Thanks to Back to the Filming Location for identifying this location.

LOCATION: 1063 E Providencia Ave, Burbank, CA 91501

Petey the dog can be seen running through a neighborhood and passing by a local market. The building has since been remodeled, but some of the buildings across the street still match up how they appear in the film.

LOCATION: 448 N 6th St, Burbank, CA 91501

We made it to Froggy’s house just before what appeared to be imminent remodeling or demolition. The home is fenced off and seemingly abandoned, with no trespassing signs, but remained very similar to how it appeared in the film. It is actually located right next to Alfalfa’s house, covered later in this article. Thanks again to Back to the Filming Location for identifying this location, as well as Alfalfa’s house.

LOCATION: 537 E Palm Ave, Burbank, CA 91501

The boys’ “He-Man Womun Haters Club” formerly sat on a hillside overlooking Downtown Los Angeles. The location was on Figueroa Terrace, but as is the case with most open land in Los Angeles from decades ago, the area has since been developed. Here is the general vicinity where the clubhouse would have been.

LOCATION: 1031 Figueroa Terrace, Los Angeles, CA 90012

Looking the opposite direction at N Beaudry Ave, the road can actually be seen in the background of several shots of the clubhouse, such as when Waldo leaves with Darla.

The canal where Alfalfa serenades Darla can be found at the Venice Canals near Venice Beach. This location still largely looks the same as it did in the film. There are numerous bridges in the neighborhood. The boys eavesdrop over their boat at the bridge connecting Linnie Canal to Court C. The exact same bridge has also appeared in some very different films, including “A Nightmare On Elm Street” and Oliver Stone’s “The Doors.”

Alfalfa walks along the curb holding flowers at this street corner, when he suddenly runs into some bullies.

LOCATION: 520 S Bel Aire Dr, Burbank, CA 91501

Alfalfa runs from the bullies up this alley, located at the same location as the above image.

Alfalfa continues running from the bullies, finally eluding them at an auto painting shop.

LOCATION: 5600 Lankershim Blvd, North Hollywood, CA 91601

Darla’s house can be found back in Burbank. The house was painted white in the film. Alfalfa brings Darla flowers, when he is suddenly interrupted by Waldo and his dog.

LOCATION: 537 Delaware Rd, Burbank, CA 91504

When a fire breaks out at the clubhouse, Buckwheat and Porky rush to a phone booth to call the fire station, but give up when they can’t remember the number for 9-1-1. They walk away, not noticing a fire station directly across the street. This scene was filmed in North Hollywood.

LOCATION: 5320 Tujunga Ave, Los Angeles, CA 91601

The boys grab a fire hose from this building.

LOCATION: 515 E Magnolia Blvd, Burbank, CA 91501

Spanky takes Alfalfa to Darla’s ballet recital, where he insists Alfalfa break up with her. This scene was filmed at the famous Castle Green Apartments in Pasadena. The scene was shot on the side of the property facing S Raymond Ave. The boys are seen walking down this entrance, with the Stats Floral Supply building visible behind them (the white, painted letters are no longer there).

LOCATION: 99 S Raymond Ave, Pasadena, CA 91105

The boys wait outside for Darla for a bit, but have to flee inside to escape some bullies by disguising themselves as ballerinas. Most of this area is obscured by fencing and hedges from the street, but you can see into the property from a couple spots. Castle Green has been featured in countless films, such as “True Romance,” “The Sting,” “Wild At Heart,” “Deja Vu,” “Sneakers,” “Bugsy,” “The Last Samurai,” “Puppet Master” and many more.

Alfalfa’s house can be found in Burbank, located beside Froggy’s house. Much like Froggy’s house, it is fenced off and abandoned, with remodeling or demolition seemingly imminent.

LOCATION: 529 E Palm Ave, Burbank, CA 91501

Although they are never seen in the film as being located next to one another, here is the proximity of Alfalfa and Froggy’s homes to one another.

After having an arguement, Alfalfa and Spanky are seen unknowingly passing each other, as Alfalfa walks next to the wall at the street level, while Spanky passes behind the fence line on the school grounds. The school seen in the background is John Muir Middle School (1111 N Kenneth Rd, Burbank, CA 91504). Thanks once more to Back to the Filming Location for identifying this location.
