5. Embassy of Qadir
The exterior and interior shots that show the Embassy of Qadir, where Wax is taken hostage, Axe goes in search of his dutiful right hand man, where the Sheik of Qadir is supposedly inside, and where Andalov shows up in the library are all filmed at the House of the Redeemer, at 7 E. 95th Street on the Upper East Side. The stunning house was originally built for the great granddaughter of Commodore Corenilus Vanderbilt, Edith Shepard Fabbri. The architect was Grosvenor Atterbury, who designed Kykuit, the Rockefeller estate in the Hudson Valley, Forest Hills in Queens, and more.
