mr. eko’s village
from lost posted in television by chewing_the_scenery
The area around Hawaii's former Waialua Sugar Mill, which closed down operations in 1996, was used for Mr. Eko's Nigerian village in season 2 and 3 of Lost.
The exterior of Yemi's church was a facade constructed for the show. The interior was filmed at the Kealiiokamalu Church a couple of miles away.

The exterior of Tom's Restaurant on the corner of West 112th Street and Broadway in Morningside Heights in Manhattan was used for the establishing shots of the fictional Monk's Cafe in Seinfeld. Interiors were filmed on a sound stage.
The restaurant was also the inspiration for Suzanne Vega's 'Tom's Diner' and now that song will be stuck in your head for the rest of the day. You're welcome.

The Hawaii Convention Center was turned into the Sydney Airport in Lost where Oceanic Flight 815 departs on the way to Los Angeles before crashing on the island. It's seen in multiple flashbacks throughout the first several seasons.
santa rosa mental health institute
from lost posted in television by chewing_the_scenery
It took eighteen episodes of Lost before Hurley finally got a flashback, which by then Kate, Jack, Sawyer and Charlie each had two apiece.
The interior scenes at Hurley's mental institution were filmed at the Laniakea YWCA in Honolulu. It's featured when we find out a little about the numbers in season one and also in season two's 'Dave,' one of Lost's goofier and more confusing episodes, which I guess is saying a lot.
