Season 1

Georgia St in Downtown Vallejo, CA

Early in the series we see the main characters driving down a familiar road to many individuals from Vallejo. Georgia St, known for its role in local history, viewers will be able to identify some landmark buildings that surround the area.

The Crestmont Theater

Located on Georgia St, this theater set was constructed to play a significant role and provided a rustic and warm feeling to scenes captured here. The theater signage has since been removed for now.

Downtown Vallejo Lights

The lights in Downtown Vallejo were a project put in place by local merchants to help beautify the iconic street. In the show, there are a few instances where they are on full display, enhancing each shot.

The Drug Store

Interesting note about the Baker's Drug Store set, during production there was an actual drug store that opened just a block away on the same street and for months confused customers and visitors alike.

Indian Alley

Located right off Georgia St and near Virginia St in Vallejo, a wall with the alley was painted to mirror the artistry of the set design inside the famed cafe within the show, Monet's.

Virginia St, Vallejo CA

Located on Virginia St and next to the Vallejo Chamber of Commerce, Monet's which was the former building of City Lights Cafe & Catering. The building still stands but as of now there is no telling what the future of the cafe will be.

Mare Island in Vallejo, CA

Mare Island for years was a working Naval Base, today it is used for many activities like wine tasting, golfing and more industrial uses like ship repair. Many film makers have utilized this unique, aged setting for many different projects and 13 Reasons Why called it home during production. Though some of the locations will be not shared for privacy reasons, here is a location that is currently available to the public.

The opening in the road leads to the San Pablo Bay Trail which lines the outer edge of Mare Island and on a clear day, offers the greatest views of the sunset and Mt. Tamalpais.

The Rodman Center

One of the closed sets used during production, this former gymnasium and bowling alley which was heavily used during the 1940s and 50s was cleaned and remodeled to be one of the more iconic settings used throughout the project.

Mare Island Sound Stages

Poised to ensure the production team could have freedom both within a school setting, bedrooms and more, the interior shots were filmed on sound stages constructed specifically for the project on Mare Island.

Glen Cove in Vallejo from Crockett, CA

Crockett, our friendly neigbor across the water offers some spectacular views of the City of Vallejo and one such location is Glen Cove, a pocket in the corner of Vallejo which has access to the Carquinez Strait and is shown here with the rolling landscape in the background for which Vallejo is known.

The Carquinez and Alfred Zampa Bridges

Located above Eckley Pier in Crockett, CA, we catch a glimpse of Vallejo from across the Carquinez Strait. Giving views to the two bridges that connect the city to the other side of the Bay Area.

The Classic Vallejo Skyline
