In real life: Much closer to the city than the show's skyline shots might lead you believe (as in, a few miles from downtown), the site's a former 100yr-old granite quarry that was bought by the city in 2006, and is being converted into a 300-acre park and reservoir. It's eventually overrun by walkers, forcing the group to move on, but not before Amy's sister is killed, Shane kicks the crap of Carol's deadbeat husband, and Rick is reunited with Lori and Carl. In the show: We're first introduced to the group of survivors here, where they've set up camp on the outskirts of the city. The survivors' camp - Bellwood QuarryĪddress: Lois Street Northwest, Atlanta, GA 30318ĭistance: It's pretty much a straight 3.3mi down Marietta Rd (7min)įirst appeared: The camp (Season 1, Episode 1 - "Days Gone Bye"), The quarry (Season 1, Episode 2 - "Guts")
Jenner's brain scan video when explaining to skeptics (Hershel, Milton, etc.) that their loved ones-turned-zombies are never coming back? Is it so hard to say, "Look, man, we've been to the f*ck#ng CDC and we know for a fact THEY'RE NOT HUMAN ANYMORE!!!"?Ħ. Random TWD question: Why does no one in the group ever reference Dr. The CDC building depicted in the show is actually the 2,750-seat Cobb Energy Performing Arts Center, about 11mi northwest of the city, and most of the interiors were shot on a set inside the Georgia World Congress Center. In real life: The actual CDC is located in Atlanta (about 8.5 miles from the real survivors' camp) and - no matter what you read in some chat room - is NOT rigged to blow sky high in case of emergency. After a rip-roaring night of boozing, the generators run out of fuel and our crew narrowly escapes before the building self-destructs. Edwin Jenner, the agency's last remaining employee. In the show: In search of answers, the group reaches the CDC and is reluctantly allowed in by Dr. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)Īddress: 2800 Cobb Galleria Pkwy, Atlanta, GA 30339įirst appeared: Season 1, Episode 5 - "Wildfire"
