20 Awesome DC TV Easter Eggs You Probably Missed

11. Wayne Manor (Gotham)

A lot of things on Gotham look pretty unfamiliar from most of the previous live-action incarnations, but there's one setting that may look incredibly familiar. And, well, that's because it is exactly the same. It may be a young Bruce Wayne in the Manor, and a much rougher Alfred, but the building is the Webb Institute (a private engineering college in Glen Cove, New York), used on Gotham for both interior and exterior shots.

The very same building was used for the outside shots of Wayne Manor in Batman Forever, and again a couple of years later in Batman & Robin. Thankfully, it seems that's the only thing they took from that film.
