Too bad public restaurants in these buildings historically fail. There was a beautiful space in North Dallas under a big business building where 3 restaurants failed in 3 years. Easy access, gorgeous patio, amazing food at all 3 joints. They all fail inside of a year.

The Continental interior dining room shots were mostly shot inside of the Delmonico’s restaurant, and while this version isn’t the 1837 original and has little connection to it other than the name and a faithful recreation of the luxurious interior, the interior has the look and feel of a bygone era of grandeur. It was in operation from 1999 and has only had recent issues since 2020 due to covid and disputes amongst the owners.

@@stevenhetzel6483 ? There are plenty of publicly available restaurants in NYC of extremely high caliber with both location, staff, and food. Plenty have been open much longer than a year, but I guess it would depend on your interpretation of ‘publicly available’ as most will cost much more than the average person would pay for a dinner

I think we dont really remember it that it was in Batman and aslo sam raimi's spiderman as the daily bugle. It is because, it has no mystery on it. It was depicted as a normal bank and a media outlet. However, in John Wick, it became the continental. It had lore to it. The design, the history and the people. Plus the gold coins being used. And lastly, the business and protection the contintental offers. That's the reason why, it became more than it should be and remembered more than as part of John Wick , than any other films
