Although the city where it is supposed to take place is never named, the Coen brothers filmed their 1990 movie Miller's Crossing in New Orleans.
Barton Arms, the name of Tom's apartment, is a nod to Barton Fink which they wrote during a three-week break they took while writing the Miller's Crossing screenplay. This is the exterior filming location only. The apartment interior was shot on a set.
