('21046',' The location of the fictional Montecito has changed from season to  season. Some of the first episodes were taped at the Monte Carlo  Resort and Casino, which is located at the intersection of Tropicana  and the Vegas Strip (next to NY NY and across from MGM). (They  closed down the strip on at least one occasion at that block to film  a car scene...) Because of its similarity to Mandalay Bay, many of  the show visuals place the Montecito at the far southern end of The  Strip, albeit usually across the street from Mandalay Bay on the  airport side of Las Vegas Boulevard. The exact location and rotation  of the building seems to vary a lot within this area, indeed the CGI  zoom shots of the building exterior in the season two episode,  "Montecito Lancers", shows the building in three slightly differing  locations for three different shots. Many of Mandalay Bays  interiors and exteriors (including its wave pool) have been used as  Montecito exteriors, although the actual set of Montecito is located  at Culver Studios, in Culver City, California, so the interiors are  a replica of the Mandalay Bay. These studios are where  _Gone with the Wind (1939)_ (qv) was filmed. During the first season  of the show, many of the Montecitos suites overlooked various parts  of the middle part of the Strip, placing the hotel near where the  Venetian, Flamingo, or Mirage are currently, before the more  consistent location at the southern end of the Strip was finalized.  In Season 3, Ed Delines office appears to be in the middle of the  strip, overlooking Harrahs, Caesars Palace, the Mirage, and the  Venetian, which puts the Montecito near where Treasure Island is  located. This is inconsistent with the flyover shots of the  Montecito, which would place Eds office over 2 miles away. Closer  examination of the window scene shows that the Mirages marquee over  their driveway has been edited to read "Montecito". In season 4,  episode 2 (around min 34) there is a scene in Ed Delines office  where again we can see an overview of The Mirage and Caesars  Palace. Again its a confirmation that Ed Delines office would be  where Treasure Island is located. According to an episode that  originally aired in December 2005, the Montecito is located about  1.5 miles from the Wynn Las Vegas. Its possible that this distance  is in a straight line ("as the crow flies", if you will) as opposed  to a reference to actual driving distance. This distance is  inconsistent with long shots that place the Montecito near the  airport and Mandalay Bay, but is in line with Season 3 visual  references noted above. Other episodes show aerial shots of the  Montecito that make it appear to be situated at the corner of Giles  St. and Reno Ave., about half a mile from Mandalay Bay.'),
