I didn't recall a cable car in the shot... From what I'd recalled of the scene of the exiles though I thought that was the downtown side under the Ft. Pitt, but I could be wrong... I don't recall the scene well enough to remember a cable car so I missed something for sure. I'm sure locals are going to be anxious to pick apart all kinds of stuff with it. I know the one tunnel was an area downtown called the Bathtub. Some of the chase shots were on the Mon Wharf but made to look longer. It was pretty cool to look at and know what you're seeing but see it altered to look longer or wider than it actually is.
P-Siddy:
Er, sorry... I goofed the 'exile' one. Yeah, I meant the 'escape' bridge where Blake was. You can see the cables when he talks to the other cops.
Jesse James:
I'm forgetting the scene... maybe close up they used the NYC one? The distance shots it REALLY looked like the Ft. Pitt to me, but maybe they're also very similar. I don't recall them closing the Ft Pitt to film anything but they took a ton of aerial shots over the city.
A lot of set shooting was done here too I guess.

I know, but it's a chain that's name is partially rooted in a New York Avenue - it's a New York staple. When they drive by that signage it doesn't make you think Gotham City, it makes you think United States... New York... product placement.
