River Rescue site


Just out of curiosity, does anyone familiar with Pittsburgh know if the site where they filmed the river rescue center really exists and where exactly it is in the city?

I know this is five years old, but just seeing it now for the first time. I was at Duquesne University when this was being filmed, which is directly across the Monongahela river from the River Rescue HQ, and I don't remember it being there. It certainly hasn't been there since the movie was made. I worked in the three-story, long black building that you can see in the background during the River rescue HQ scenes, and my lab windows faced toward the set. I used to stand on that bluff and look across the river all the time, so to this day I have no idea how I didn't see a movie set over there. Around that time, the big hype was about the Silence of the Lambs and JFK being filmed in and around Pittsburgh.
