‘The Pitt’: behind the real filming locations on the smash-hit medical drama

Dating back to 1882, this Pittsburgh institution briefly transforms into the fictional Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Hospital for The Pitt, with three days of filming devoted to it. Its main entrance appears on screen with new signage, and its helipad is also featured. A standout rooftop scene from the pilot was shot here, where Dr. Robby and Dr. Abbott have a tense moment as Abbott, worn down by yet another gruelling shift, stands dangerously close to the edge contemplating taking his life, while the East Coast skyline forms a dramatic backdrop and Robby defuses the moment with a sarcastic remark. - Shaurya Thapa
