The Prodigal Son

Then we see Crockett being chased. He runs across Church Street at Franklin Street and then north on Franklin past the Valley National Bank at 269 Church Street.
Crockett crosses Broadway at W 65th Street and continues running south past the New York Philharmonic.
Then we see Crockett run past the Red Baron Cafe. In the blink of an eye he has magically jumped to West 69th Street. He turns south on Columbus Avenue.
Then we see Crockett run past Johnny Ward, southbound on Columbus Ave. from 69th Street.
Then we see him still southbound on Columbus Ave. crossing West 66th Street with Alice Tully hall in the background.
Then it fades to nighttime and Tubbs is walking into the Gramercy House.
There Sacco tries to kill Tubbs but Tubbs wins the battle. Valerie is not happy with Tubbs for killing her love.
We cut to Sonny who is back at the Loew’s bar. He leaves and heads down 43rd Street towards 6th Ave.
Then we go to Margaret’s. The exterior establishing shot was filmed looking east toward Central Park from the roof of 66 West 85th Street.
Then we see Crockett and Tubbs cross Lexington Ave. at 42nd Street and then walk along and into the Chrysler building on Lexington Ave.
They go up to the 14th floor and pay Mr. Johnston a visit. “Hi there, were the cops
you’ve been trying to kill.” Only this is not the 14th floor of the Chrysler Building
nor is it even in New York. This was filmed on location in the Interterra Building
located at 1200 Brickell Avenue in Miami. We see the exterior of this building in
the first four opening montages of the series. Thanks to Sonny-
As seen in Contempt of Court
After Crockett and Tubbs are shown the door we see Valerie contemplating her situation and then C+T at their hotel room. Locations unknown.
Then we see Crockett and Tubbs arrive at the World Trade Center.
Valerie shows up to redeem herself, and the gun fight is on. Crockett chases Miguel Revilla away from the World Trade Center toward Battery Park. They run down a landfill hill near what is now West Street.
Crockett has learned since Brother’s Keeper or because of Brother’s Keeper and he opens fire on the helicopter which crashes at Battery Park.
Then we go to Valerie’s place where Tubbs gets stupid.
Then we go to C+T’s hotel room where Sonny is packing up and heading out. Location unknown but very unlikely that it was in New York. It is either a set or a room overlooking Biscayne Bay.
Crockett and Tubbs meet up at the eastern Airlines gate and head back to Miami. This has been reported to have been filmed at J.F.K. Airport.
Our heroes return to work at the O.C.B. Where they are greatly unappreciated and almost unnoticed. This of course was filmed at Greenwich Studios, Stage A.

The sphere that we see above was miraculously not completely crushed flat when the twin towers came down around and on top of it. It was significantly damaged but minor relative to the forces involve. It is currently in Battery Park.
